    Forte Belvedere, founded in 1590 and built by Buontalenti, was created to defend the city, to hold the treasury of the Medici family. It was connected to Palazzo Pitti and Palazzo Vecchio.

    Il Forte di Belvedere è stato edificio militare fino al 1951, quando l’Esercito lo ha ceduto al Comune di Firenze. Dopo i restauri, dal 1955 è stato aperto al pubblico, fino al 1998.
