Basilica of Santa Croce

[Andy ES]

Just got back from a very pleasant week in the Med and while we were in the above Church in Florence Italy, we came across the Tomb of someone  you may have heard of...

He was re-buried in this tomb in 1737 some 95 years after his death clues below. 😁

Galileo, Galileo

Florence is wonderful. The Museo Galileo is well worth a visit.

I was in Florence for a short day some years ago. Galileo's tomb was on my limited 'must visit' list.
The builders were in.🤬 The tomb was covered in polythene and protected by scaffolding.
Yes Florence is a wonderful city. Your post has reminded me that I must return.
