Very much in line with the humanist ideas of Florence back in time, the facade of this church was once used for astrological calculations! The square itself, in its turn, was used as the Dominican gardens back in the 15th century, but sadly, only the internal part of the gardens was left to our days. The entrance to the basilica is not free (it costs €7,50) but it’s definitely worth it, as you will be able to enjoy the gardens, the beautiful interiors and the crucifixes by Giotto and Giambologna.
