The Florence Cathedral (Santa Maria del Fiori) or simply "Duomo" is Florence's tallest building and the city's most famous landmark.
This massive Gothic cathedral dominates the skyline of Florence Italy (Firenze) and is generally considered to be the centre of the city.
When completed in 1463, Brunelleschi's dome was the largest of its kind in the world.
Inside the Duomo, is a huge painting by Vasari and Zuccari called the "Last Judgment".
