About
The Corridoio Vasariano (Vasari Corridor) in Florence is a significant historical and architectural landmark.
The Corridoio Vasariano was commissioned by Cosimo I de' Medici and designed by the architect Giorgio Vasari. It was constructed to connect the Palazzo Vecchio, where the Medici family resided, with the Palazzo Pitti, their new residence.
The corridor was built to allow the Medici family to move between their residences safely and privately, avoiding the crowds and potential security risks of the streets.
