Accessed via the Museo Marino Marini, the Rucellai Sacellum is one of the timeless masterpieces of Italian Renaissance art. Designed by architect and thinker Leon Battista Alberti for Florentine merchant Giovanni Rucellai between 1455 and 1471, and based on the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, it is a miracle of perfect harmony and proportion, one whose design intuitions still feel fresh today.
A private visit to this exquisite sculptural artefact in the company of a guide who illustrates all its symbolism and significance is an unforgettable experience.
