The Mostra Internazionale dell'Artigianato is an opportunity to get to know Florence and its artistic beauties, starting from the Fortezza da Basso, a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture. Built in the first half of the 16th century, to ensure control of the city to the Medici, today it is the main headquarters of the Florentine exhibition center.
