Piazza Signoria, in front of the Fountain of Neptune, allegory of the Florentine power on the seas (it was to remember the grip of Pisa and the foundation of the order of the Knights of Santo Stefano). The Grand Duke Cosimo I decided as well as embellishing the square, to build a Fontana, given that there was nothing in the area (we must remember as well as for the water approval, the water also served for personal cleaning what not so much in vogue at the time, just think of the various diseases due to dirt in general).

Many treasures, Florence stands out as a jewel of the Renaissance. Every street, piazza, and palazzo tells a story of artistic genius and cultural innovation. One of the best ways to experience the enchantment of Florence is through walking tours, where the city reveals its secrets with every step.

Now we want tell something about a place were people and tourist probably walk in front. On via Lambertesca at n.4, in the direction of the Uffizi square, we passed in front of the large green color door, and we wondered .. but what will it be inside? Soon said, what remains and we can see currently consisted of various home belonging to the Pulci family, these finding themselves very close to the large complex of the new pole of the city power, were acquired for the new structure used for the mint, very important for coining of the coins.
