During our Europe vacation package, we were on a walking tour of Florence, Italy, when we passed  by Casa Di Dante.


Built to celebrate the birth place of Dante Alighieri, the Italian poet of the Middle Ages, Dante's Home is now the seat of the House-Museum of Dante.  Casa Di Dante has three levels dedicated to the life of Dante.  Here you are able to see the three most important stages in his life.
