Italy, Florence - Basilica di San Lorenzo (Basilica of Saint Lawrence)

San Lorenzo in Florence is a significant historical and architectural site, known for its association with the Medici family. Originally consecrated in 393, it served as the city's cathedral before the bishop's seat moved. The church underwent major renovations in the 15th century, led by architect Filippo Brunelleschi. The complex includes notable works like the Old Sacristy by Brunelleschi and Donatello, and the Laurentian Library by Michelangelo. The Medici chapels, designed by Michelangelo and others, showcase Mannerist style with unique architectural features. Despite Michelangelo's incomplete work on the New Sacristy, the site remains a testament to Renaissance art and architecture.
