"This imposing building has served as Florence’s town hall since Medici times. Until the 15th century, it was the tallest edifice in the city with a 95-meter-high tower (Brunelleschi’s dome on the cathedral surpassed it). It is attributed to Arnolfo di Cambio, while the interior is largely the work of Giorgio Vasari. The first floor includes the magnificent Salone del Cinquecento, while upstairs are the sumptuous Royal Apartments with Eleonora di Toledo’s elaborate chapel and the Sala dei Gigli with frescoes by Ghirlandaio."
