2-hour tour in one of the less famous and most impressive museums in the world: The Convent San Marco, with its cells of the Dominican friars and the cell where Cosimo The Elder Medici used to pray! Each cell has been frescoed by Beato Angelico, one of the great painters of the Renaissance and a friar himself. Here we visit the Refectory with the marvellous Last Supper by Domenico del Ghirlandaio, the famous Medici library and also the cell of the Dominican friar Girolamo Savonarola, who was burnt at the stalk in Piazza Signoria. His dress is still there, with the marks of the burning, more than 500 years old! The astonishing Basilica San Marco is the burial place of Agnolo Poliziano and Girolamo Savonarola. Of course we'll visit it as well!

The tour guide obviously knew much about the subject matter, but was barely understandable. Her mastery of English was not what we hoped for. Still, the paintings and frescoes are amazing.

I went with my family in Florence to visit some evocative and significant works of Beato Angelico and we found out this tour in San Marco basilica. The church has a new classic facade from XVIII century and the museum includes the Michelozzo’s library, the Medici’s and Savonarola’s cells and the St Antony cloister. The tour was appreciated by all of us and the guide was well prepared and friendly. Recommended!

Jamás he podido comprender la razón de que este museo no se replete de público, teniendo obras en su interior tan interesantes. Bueno, pero mejor para uno, ya que así se puede disfrutar mejor. En 2010 acudí a este museo y estaba prohibido fotografiar, pero sta vez, en febrero de 2023, sí se podía por suerte, por lo cual habré tomado más 200 fotos en su interior. No es necesario comprar los tickets con antelación, justamente por la poca afluencia de visitantes. Este museo se puede dividir en dos: primero, la pinacoteca situada en la planta baja, con pinturas magníficas de artistas florentinos renacentistas, y en segundo término, las celdas de san Marcos, en la primera planta, decoradas por Fra Giovanni de Fiésole, más conocido como Fra Angelico o Beato Angelico, por encargo de los mojes dominicos. También se puede visitar la celda en que residió por un tiempo Girolamo Savonarola, predicador famoso que tuvo participación en el gobierno de Florencia por un corto tiempo y mandó a quemar una serie de artículos mundanos, a lo cual se denominó "la hoguera de las vanidades".
