Florence Piazzas Quiz – Signoria, Duomo and Santa Croce

Piazza della Signoria has been Florence's political heart for centuries. Palazzo Vecchio rises above it, the Loggia dei Lanzi shelters statues such as Perseus, and a copy of Michelangelo's David stands where the original once did.

Piazza del Duomo holds Brunelleschi's dome, Giotto's bell tower and the Baptistery with Ghiberti's Gates of Paradise. Piazza Santa Croce fronts the church where Michelangelo, Galileo and Machiavelli are buried, and it hosts calcio storico each June.
