House of Dante, History museum in Florence, Italy.

The House of Dante displays medieval artifacts, documents, and period furniture across three floors in a reconstructed building within Florence's historic center.

The museum, established in 1960, stands where records indicate the Alighieri family resided during the 13th century in the area between S. Martino church and Piazza Donati.

Each floor represents different phases of Dante's life, featuring a collection of documents, ancient books of the Divine Comedy, and reproductions of 14th-century artworks.

Located at Via Santa Margherita 1, the museum opens daily from 10 AM to 6 PM, offering guided tours in Italian and English for 8 euros.

The museum exhibits a model of the Battle of Campaldino and currency from Dante's era, along with life-size figures wearing historically accurate medieval clothing.
