All the Christmas markets in Florence!

The famous Weihnachtsmarkt, the traditional german Christmas market, will be held this year between Decembre 2nd and December 20th in the beautiful square of Piazza Santa Croce: wooden cabins, as in a little traditional german village, full of Christmas decorations, great ideas for presents and Christmas “delicatessen” coming from all over Europe.

On December 8th, in Piazza Santissima Annunziata, you can see the Fierucola dell’Immacolata, dedicated to local artisans and slow food. The same event will be then in Piazza Santo Spirito on December 20th.

In Largo Annigoni, Santa is coming back to town again this year: in the Villaggio di Babbo Natale (Santa’s Village) a park full of fun will be open between December 8th and January 6th! Ice-skating, games, carousels, street food, and a fair trade market are just some of the things you will find in there! Last but not least, the House of Santa Claus where the little kids can meet Santa and write their Christmas letter too!

Christmas getting closer...

Christmas is getting closer, and you feel like you're breathing a special atmosphere here at Torre Guelfa!

We want to say hello to everyone staying with us and share some Christmas pictures with all our nice guests who are staying home right now.

There are some great Christmas markets going on in town, and the best one is probably the Santa Croce market, with german and austrian tyipical products.

This is quite interesting, especially for our american friends, because inside the church of Santa Croce there is something which inspired the most famous symbol of New York and the United States: the Statue of Liberty!

As you enter Santa Croce church, you will immediately see this sculpture: The Statue of Liberty of Poetry, made by Pio Fedi to honor the memory of Giovanni Battista Niccolini. Many people think this may have been the true inspiration for the Statue of Liberty, now a symbol of America and freedom, well known in the whole world.

We bet no one would have ever thought to find this into one of the most famous churches of Florence, in Italy!

If you're planning to spend your Christmas holidays in Italy, why not to come to Florence and enjoy the beauty of the town under the Christmas lights?
