Florence is the capital city of the region of Tuscany and its rich historical, artistic and cultural heritage make it one of the main tourist destinations in Italy and Europe.Founded in the first century A.C. by the Romans, Florence has been through many prosperous and dark periods. The city experienced the battles between the Guelphs and Ghibellines, it was a Commune and then a "Signoria" under the Medici during the Renaissance. It was part of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany first with the Medici and then under the Lorraines during the 18th century, up until it became a part of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861. Cimabue, Dante Alighieri, Giotto, Brunelleschi, Donatello, Botticelli and Michelangelo are just a few of the famous Tuscan artists who contributed to making Florence such a beautiful and important city in the world.

Allegedly built where Saint Ambrose would have stayed when in Florence in 393, the church is first recorded in 998. The first building is thought to date from the 8th century, as a chapel of a nunnery built in honour of the saint.Francesco Granacci (1469–1543), an Italian painter of the Renaissance and lifelong friend of Michelangelo Buonarroti, is buried in this church.

The Chiesa di Ognissanti (All-Saints Church) is a Franciscan church founded by the lay order of the Umiliati, dedicated to all the saints and martyrs, known and unknown. It was completed during the 1250s, but almost completely rebuilt on Baroque designs of Bartolomeo Pettirossi, about 1627, with a façade by Matteo Nigetti
![Page 29: Firenze Passeggiando per la città2](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081605/5554ca6cb4c90559398b5557/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The façade - by Matteo Nigetti (1637) - conserved the grand glazed terracotta lunette in the manner of the Della Robbia, now attributed to Benedetto Buglioni, over the doorway. To the left of the façade is a campanile of 13th and 14th century construction.

The Loggia del Mercato Nuovo, popularly known as the Loggia del Porcellino is so called to distinguish it from the Mercato vecchio (old market, located in the area of today's Piazza della Repubblica.The loggia was built around the middle of the 16th centuryThe focal point of the loggia is the Fontana del Porcellino ("fountain of the piglet"), actually a copy of a bronze wild boar by Pietro Tacca from the sixteenth century; the original can be found at Palazzo Pitti.

Popular tradition has it that rubbing the nose brings fortune, so over time, the statue has acquired a certain shine in that spot. Visitors are encouraged to place a coin in the mouth of the boar after rubbing its nose, and superstition implies that the wish will be granted if the offering tumbles through the grate whence the water flows. The slope of the grate is such that most coins do fall through, and are collected by the city.
