The Baptistery of San Giovanni, located in front of Florence Cathedral, is one of the city's oldest and most revered monuments. Built between the 11th and 12th centuries, it’s renowned for its striking octagonal shape, Romanesque architecture, and stunning mosaics that adorn the interior dome. Its most famous features are the three sets of bronze doors, including Ghiberti’s Gates of Paradise, celebrated for their detailed biblical scenes and artistic mastery.
