Florence's iconic cathedral is a pinnacle of Gothic and Renaissance architecture, clad in patterned white, green, and pink marble. Its crowning glory is Filippo Brunelleschi's immense brick dome, engineered in the 15th century without wooden scaffolding. Admission to the church nave is free, though climbing the dome and Giotto's Campanile requires paid tickets.
