Duomo Interesting Facts

 

The Duomo in Florence is the most standout feature of the city's skyline. Rising high above the historic old town, the Duomo has watched over Florence for centuries. Formally known as the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, the Duomo took over 140 years to complete, beginning in 1293. The cathedral's iconic dome was modeled after the Pantheon in Rome, and a man named Fillipo Brunelleschi was hired to construct it after winning a city-wide design competition.

For sweeping city views, climb the 463 stairs to the top of the dome and take in the beauty that is Florence!

Would you climb the stairs to the top? If you’re ready to climb them send me a DM
