Florence (en italien : Firenze, prononcé /fi'rɛntse/) est la huitième ville d'Italie par sa population, capitale de la région de Toscane et siège de la ville métropolitaine de Florence. Berceau de la Renaissance en Italie, ainsi que de la langue italienne, capitale du royaume d'Italie entre 1865 et 1871, inscrite sur la liste du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO au titre du Centre historique de Florence, la ville présente une richesse artistique exceptionnelle. Elle est universellement reconnue comme l'un des berceaux de l'art et de l'architecture, ainsi que parmi les plus belles villes du monde, grâce à ses nombreux monuments et musées dont le Duomo, Santa Croce, Santa Maria Novella, la Galerie des Offices, le Ponte Vecchio, la Piazza della Signoria, le Palazzo Vecchio et le Palazzo Pitti. Les héritages artistiques, littéraires et scientifiques de génies du passé tels que Pétrarque, Boccace, Brunelleschi, Michel-Ange, Giotto, Cimabue, Botticelli, Léonard de Vinci, Donatello, Laurent de Médicis, Machiavel, Galilée et Dante Alighieri, sont d'une valeur inestimable. Florence est devenue un grand centre culturel et touristique, et joue un rôle important dans la mode italienne.
