Palazzo della Gherardesca, Renaissance palace and luxury hotel in Florence, Italy.
The palace features a quadrangular courtyard adorned with intricate bas-reliefs and connects to Florence's largest private garden in the historic center.
Construction began between 1473 and 1480 for Bartolommeo Scala, chancellor of the Republic and trusted advisor to Lorenzo de Medici.
The palace hosted the first performance of Domenico Belli's Orfeo Dolente during the 1616 Carnival, staged between two acts of Torquato Tasso's Aminta.
The complex houses a Five-Star Four Seasons Hotel, offering luxury accommodations near major Florence attractions and cultural landmarks.
The garden contains the first mandarin trees cultivated in Florence and features a collection of century-old trees, including a large maple and sequoia.
