Former Santa Maria deli Angeli Chapel (Rotonda in Brunelleski)

Original Text

I went to August 2017. The octagonal building in a narrow alley just off Selvi Street in Florence is the former Santa Maria deli Angeli Chapel (Rotonda in Brunelleski). It is near Santisima Annunziata Square. It is said to be a work of Brunelleski in his later years. When you enter the alley, you will find it at the end of the parking lot, surrounded by surrounding buildings, and it is built in a narrow place that is not very noticeable. It seems that you can't go inside.
