Rreth
Fakte të shpejta: The dome spans 45.5 meters across, making it the largest brick dome ever built. Over 4 million bricks were used in the construction, all laid without modern scaffolding techniques.
Pikat kryesore: Visitors can climb 463 steps to the top of the dome for panoramic views of Florence. Inside, you’ll find Vasari’s Last Judgment fresco, which covers 3,600 square meters and took 14 years to complete.
Këshilla të brendshme
- Wear comfortable shoes for the steep climb to the dome top.
- Visit early or late in the day to avoid the largest crowds at the stairs.
- The terrace facing the Arno River provides stunning photo opportunities at sunset.
- Skip the audio guide inside if you prefer to focus on the artwork and ambiance without distractions.
