The Church of Orsanmichele, Temple of Wonders

The Church of Orsanmichele stands out for its singular uniqueness. Once the Loggia del Grano and then a silent Temple dedicated to St Michael the Archangel and a mysterious Madonna ‘of miracles’, the Church still welcomes us with its precious Tabernacle, to communicate a secret message. On those blue ribbed vaults of the ceiling, the pages of an ancient doctrinal tradition, rooted in biblical texts but still capable of making us share in its sacredness, have been imprinted.

The alchemy blends with the mystery of the characters depicted and blends perfectly with the original statues that dominate the small Palazzo dell’Arte della Lana Museum. The Major and Minor Arts and the greatest artists of the 15th century have left us a true jewel in which worship and devotion once merged with the work of the industrious Florentine people.
