Dante Alighieri Divine Poet, father of our language… father of our Nation
The tourists who crowd the streets of the city’s centre can see the shadow of Dante everywhere: from his house to the side of the Cathedral, to the Church of Badia in via del Proconsolo where he used to admire Beatrice, from the names of the streets and alleys that remind us of the arts and crafts of medieval guilds; to the many tombstones who quote the recall of those specific places in the verses of the Divine Comedy.
