The Franciscan church that lets its dead do the talking

Basilica of the Holy Cross · Florence, Italy

Most of what makes Santa Croce famous is under your feet. Michelangelo, Galileo, Machiavelli, Rossini — slabs in the floor, easy to walk over without noticing. Above them, whitewashed walls and a dark timber roof, with the colour kept to the side chapels where the frescoes live.
