Things to do in Florence: Heritage Walks

In light of the success of the Heritage Walks, the Florence World Heritage and Relations with UNESCO Office of the Municipality and MUS.E, with the financial support of the Ministry of Tourism, has decided to extend the calendar for everyone's weekends in October, starting from Saturday 5^th

The walks, conceived as part of the Firenze Forma Continua project, aim to spread the history of the city of Florence and promote connections between the territory, people and heritage. Developed with the support of the Heritage and Research Laboratory (HeRe Lab, a joint laboratory between the Municipality of Florence and the University of Florence), the objectives of the Firenze Forma Continua project are the reappropriation of the city fabric by the community and the transmission of its values to future generations.

Free Walks Open To All

The free itineraries will lead citizens, as well as Italian and foreign visitors, to discover the lesser-known areas of the historic centre, highly evocative architecture, views and stories of Florence and appreciate the beauties of the city centre.

The Historical Center of Florence was included in the UNESCO World Heritage list because "a unique creation of its kind, a masterpiece of work, the result of a continuous creation that lasted for over six centuries"; its cultural enjoyment is too often limited to the main monuments and the most famous streets, failing to grasp the complex fabric of places, relationships and activities that is still ideally enclosed by the city walls: one of the most significant elements for understanding the historical evolution of Florence, full of references and curiosity.
