Just a few minutes from Florence, perched on the hills, lies the beautiful Campanile di Fiesole, standing tall and proud above this historic town.
The bell tower is part of Fiesole’s Cathedral of San Romolo ⛪, a place filled with centuries of history and stories that echo through its ancient stones.
By the way, did you know that Fiesole itself is older than Florence? Once it was a powerful Etruscan settlement, before the Romans took over. 📜
From this hillside, you can see why they chose this spot: stunning views over the Arno Valley and, on clear days, the city of Florence in the distance. 🌆🌿
