Santa Croce Church is one of the must if you want to know all about Florence. The Church was consacrated in 1443 but the façade of the church remained unfinished for more than three centuries, showing its bare Florentine limestone surface, the structure apt to sustain the architectural and sculptural elements. When in the nineteenth century Santa Croce became the Pantheon of the Italians it was necessary to complete the works and in 1857 the first stone of the façade was put into place at the presence of Pope Pius IX.

A very pleasant place without too many people, the church is nice and the garden is relaxing. In the evening there is entertainment with young people.
