Vicchio is located in Mugello near Florence. In this town were born some of the most important Italian artists and thinkers: Giotto, Fra Angelico, Cellini and Don Lorenzo Milani.

There are many tourists who choose Vicchio for their vacations. In this town you can visit the Museum Giotto`s House and the `Ponte alla Ragnaia`, a sixteenth century bridge where according to the legends Cimabue met Giotto when he still was a boy. In the main square of Vicchio a statue of Giotto made ​​by the sculptor Italo Vagnetti in 1901 welcomes you.
Very interesting also the Benvenuto Cellini`s House.

We suggest you to visit the St. John the Baptist Church which hosts works by Ghirlandaio and by Fei, and the Saint Filippo Neri Oratory.

Inside the Museum of Sacred Art Beato Angelico you will find beautiful works of art. It is important to visit the Cappellina della Bruna, a chapel where Beato Angelico prayed.

A few kilometers from Vicchio, there`s the town of Barbiana where in 1954 arrived Don Lorenzo Milani , who with his school for poor people and his books on education outraged and encouraged a debate on Italian education during the Sixties and Seventies.
