Regarding the Pitti Palace :
The Palazzo Pitti The Palazzo Pitti is a palace located in the Oltrarno district, very close to the Ponte Vecchio. The Palazzo Pitti is a Renaissance-style monument, built in the 15th century for a Florentine dignitary, Luca Pitti. The reason why Luca Pitti undertook the construction of a building of such exceptional scale for the 15th century was to serve as a residence for the Pitti family.th The century is nothing more than his desire to surpass his political rival, Cosme de Médicis.
