Florence's cathedral dome began as the subject of a public competition: in 1420, the comune chose Filippo Brunelleschi's design over his rivals', and work on the dome itself only started that August. It took sixteen years — the dome wasn't finished until August 30, 1436 — and the result is still, to this day, the largest masonry dome ever built, raised without the modern steel reinforcement that would make such a span unremarkable now.
The Ponte Vecchio you'll cross has stood in its current form since 1339-1346, rebuilt after a catastrophic flood destroyed its medieval predecessor in November 1333; archaeological traces on both riverbanks even suggest a masonry bridge crossed here as early as Roman times. For centuries it was a butchers' bridge, until Cosimo I de' Medici, who by then lived across the river at the Pitti Palace, grew tired of the smell drifting up to his windows and evicted the meat trade in favor of the gold- and silversmiths who still work there today.
Because this walk bends to your own pace rather than a fixed script, it's just as likely to linger in the Oltrarno — Florence's traditionally artisan side of the river — as it is at any marquee sight, giving a private host room to point out a quiet lane like Via dei Girolami between the bigger stops rather than rush past it.
