The church of San Lorenzo is one of the largest churches in Florence Italy. It was built between 1422 and 1470 A.D. It is one of the oldest churches in Florence Italy. When the church was constructed it was built outside city lines. While the building was being constructed they ran out of funds so they had to wait for more funds.
The church was also the parish of the Medici family. The Medici was a very wealthy family. They gave lots of money to the church. Giovanni di Bicci was part of the Medici and he wanted to buy the church and build a new one.
The inside of the church is very beautiful. The church is very big. The floor the church is very big tiles and were made of a blue stone. In the church there is big pillars holding up the church.
The exterior of the church has a big dome on the top and the walls are brick. There is one wall that is still flat faced brick that they haven’t changed since 1480. The church was designed by Filippo Brunelleschi. The church is very old.
The church is still used today. It is also a very big tourist attraction. I think that it would be cool to go and see the church of San Lorenzo. It is a very old building
