Ognissanti: A Hidden Renaissance Gem

Located in Florence, Ognissanti is one of the city's significant yet lesser-visited churches from the Renaissance era. It was originally built as part of a Benedictine monastery in the 1200s.

The church is notable for its art and history. Founded in the 13th century, it features works by renowned artists like Botticelli, who is buried here alongside his muse Simonetta Vespucci. Ghirlandaio’s fresco of “Last Supper,” admired by Leonardo da Vinci, and other important pieces make this site culturally invaluable.
