San Michele Visdomini, Baroque church in central Florence, Italy
San Michele Visdomini stands at the corner of Via Bufalini and Via dei Servi, featuring a single nave with lateral altars and three chapels in the transept.
The church construction started in 1364 to replace an older building, with the first stone laid by Bishop Andrea Corsini of Fiesole.
The interior displays notable artworks, including altarpieces by Francesco Morandini, Jacopo Chimenti, and the Pucci Altarpiece by Pontormo from 1518.
The church entrance moved from Via Bufalini to Via dei Servi during renovations between 1552 and 1782 under Celestine monks administration.
The floods of 1966 damaged the building but led to the discovery of 14th-century frescoes in the transept during subsequent restoration work.
