Church of Saints Michele and Gaetano
The Church of Saints Michele and Gaetano is one of Florence’s finest expressions of Baroque architecture, rising on Piazza Antinori with a dramatic façade commissioned by Cardinal Carlo de’ Medici. Built between 1604 and 1648 for the Theatine Order, it replaced an older Romanesque church dedicated to Saint Michael the Archangel. The new structure was designed by several architects, including Bernardo Buontalenti, Matteo Nigetti and Gherardo Silvani, whose combined work created a richly sculpted interior filled with marble chapels, altarpieces and dynamic frescoes. Dedicated to both Saint Michael and Saint Cajetan, the church reflects the spiritual intensity and artistic ambition of early 17th‑century Florence. Its dark stone, gilded details and theatrical light make it one of the city’s most atmospheric sacred spaces.
