Galilei on Show in Florence

For anyone planning a travel to Florence, from 13th March to 30th August the beautiful Palazzo Strozzi will host a very original exhibition dedicated to Galileo Galilei: a tribute to his scientific discoveries, that date back to four centuries ago. The exhibition highlights the steps that led from the Aristotelic-Ptolemaic model of the universe to the Copernican and Galileian one: a very important historical moment, evoked by the presence of numerous finds, instruments, tools, and ancient drawings. The exhibition is open to public everyday from 9 AM to 8 PM, except on Thursday, when it is open from 9 AM to 11 PM.

Therefore the appointment with culture recurs in the city that gave so much to world's culture – and still does. Florence shows itself able to increase the value of its historical local tradition, by exalting and presenting again to the world public the most suggestive aspects of it. An opportunity to experience in first line the ancient tie that links us to our land.
