Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence

Completed in 1436, the Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore is the cathedral of Florence. After nearly two hundred years of construction, the cathedral was finished after the completion of the building’s dome which was engineered by Filippo Brunelleschi.

During the summer of 2022, I saw the structure for the first time, and trust me when I say this, it was even more fascinating in person. The attention to detail, especially that of the facade, was impressive.
