Anna Maria Luisa - the lady at the top of this page - was the last heir to the Medici dynasty who died on February 18 in 1743 leaving all the family's artistic masterpieces to the city of Florence.
The city pays homage to this forward-thinking historic figure whose generosity has helped make Firenze the hub of the renaissance as we know it today.
The actual celebration for Anna Luisa is on February 18 - the date of her passing - with a city procession through the downtown.
Marchers dressed in period costumes representing the Florentine Republic parade from Piazza Signoria to the Medici Chapel, where Anna Maria and the other members of the family are buried.
The Chapel and Museum are open free of charge on this day (as well as other city museums such as Palazzo Vecchio Museum).
where and when: procession starts in piazza Signoria, at 11 am, February 18
