Lonely Planet review for Palazzo Strozzi

To outshine their Medici rivals, the Strozzi – a super-rich banking family – hired Giugliano de Sangallo to design their new city home in the 1480s. He constructed a massive but elegant fortress of rusticated stone that today hosts good temporary art exhibitions. The cafe on its colonnaded courtyard provides shelter from sun, rain and foot traffic – no ticket required.
