The Houses of Memory in the Florence area: a museum network

The palaces and buildings where famous people of the past have lived, retain the memory of its residents and pass it on to the new generations, offering itineraries for visiting and discovery in their interiors : this is how museum houses are born, constituting an important museum system in Tuscany and in Florence, for the very reason that some of the greatest ingenious spirits in history were born, lived or died in these lands.

In order to promote the knowledge and visit of these places of memory, the Themed Museum Network Houses of Memory in Tuscany - The  Great Figures was recently created: 17 museum houses and places of memory diffused in the Tuscan provinces, interconnected online and with a unified advance ticket and booking system opening soon.

In the province of Florence, for the time being, the following six institutions are part of the Museum Network:
- Casa Studio Piero Bargellini, Florence
- Casa Ferruccio Busoni, Empoli
- Casa del Boccaccio, Certaldo
- Museo Cimitero Evangelico di Porta Pinti also called "degli Inglesi", Florence
- Museo Casa Montanelli, Fucecchio
- Casa Natale Leonardo da Vinci, Anchiano - hamlet of Vinci
