Unfortunately, the dome of the Baptistery is currently being restored, so you can't admire it. At least the images are all photographed and described. Nevertheless, you can still see the beautiful marble carvings and some beautiful mosaics beneath the dome. Since the tour is included in the package with most tickets, I would still recommend going in. Please note: Buy tickets in advance, leave your backpacks in advance (behind the cathedral), and don't wear shorts or cover your arms.

At the moment, December '24, the whole area around the mill is cordoned off and access is not permitted

Right now the entire approach from all sides is blocked with steel barriers and signs indicating Private Property and Danger. These have, in the italian way, all been bypassed by visitors so that the site is still accessible. Nonetheless it IS a dangerous place, you MUST watch your step or potentially fall through holes in the structure.

Baptistery of St. John the Baptist

The Baptistery of San Giovanni is one of the oldest places of worship in Florence: in the Middle Ages it was thought to be a pagan temple of Roman times dedicated to Mars, later converted into a church. It is characterized by a fascinating octagonal geometric structure and is entirely covered with white and green marble from Prato. Stunningly beautiful, it is hard to imagine that a person could have imagined, drawn and built such a building so many years ago. Whether the viewer is a believer or not, this building will not leave anyone indifferent.

A beautiful building. However, unlike the cathedral, it currently costs 10 euros to enter. However, after looking at the Battistero from the outside, you expect something extraordinary and may be a little disappointed.

This monument is situated within the scenic natural reserve of Monte Ceceri in Fiesole, an area closely associated with Leonardo's early experiments and studies. Leonardo da Vinci is celebrated here with a stone engraving in Piazzale Leonardo, which references his famous work on the flight of birds. This location is historically significant as it is believed to be the testing ground for his flying machine, the "Grande Nibbio." The panoramic views from this spot not only offer a glimpse into Leonardo's life but also provide breathtaking vistas over Florence and the surrounding countryside. Visitors can follow the CAI path 7, starting from the Cave di Maiano, leading to this historically rich piazza. The walk through the nature reserve, past historical quarries, and up to Piazzale Leonardo is a perfect blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage, making it a must-visit for those exploring the Via degli Dei.
