Florence holds a unique and little-known itinerary, but of extraordinary artistic and cultural value: the Cenacoli, or representations of the Last Supper, created between the 14th and 16th centuries.

These monumental frescoes, created to decorate the refectories of convents, have remained in the places for which they were originally conceived, even if some have undergone restoration or relocation over time.

Through this journey, it is possible to admire the artistic evolution of great masters such as Taddeo Gaddi, Orcagna, Andrea del Castagno, Ghirlandaio, Perugino, Franciabigio and Andrea del Sarto, up until the mature sixteenth century.

An evocative experience to immerse yourself in the Renaissance art and spirituality of the city.
