Medici Chapels Tour: the Itinerary
You will visit the Buontalenti Crypt, under the Princes Chapel, where the Medici and their family members are buried. You will also be able to admire the walls covered with semi-precious stones and marble panels in the great Princes Chapel, for which the Opificio delle pietre Dure,the factory of semi-precious stones, was created, so that this enormous decorative task could be carried out.
One then proceeds into the New Vestry of San Lorenzo, designed by Michelangelo, to admire one of his most famous sculptural groups: the allegorical figures of Dawn, Dusk, Day and Night, the statues of two Medici dukes and the Madonna and Child.
