Istituto degli Innocenti
Piazza SS. Annunziata, 12, 50122, Firenze
The location is located in the very center of the main attractions of Florence, at walking-distance to Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio, Duomo, Piazza della Signoria, and Santa Maria Novella Train Station. The loggia of the ancient Ospedale degli Innocenti, designed by Brunelleschi, overlooks the beautiful Piazza delle Santissima Annunziata, in the heart of Florence’s historic center. The Institute, in continuity with its inspiration, promotes the active rights of children and adolescents as set out in the Convention on the Rights of the Child, adopted in New York on 20 November 1989, through a variety of socio-educational activities, study and research on the condition of children, training of adults who are the reference point for children and adolescents, and promotion of the culture of integration and coexistence in respect of human rights.
The following spaces have been reserved for the ForItAAL event:
- Salone Poccetti: It was the ancient women’s refectory and takes its name from the fresco la Strage degli Innocenti painted in the seventeenth century by the artist Bernardino Poccetti
- Cortile delle Donne: In 1439, it was decided to build the second courtyard, based on a project by Francesco della Luna, around which the spaces destined for the hospital’s female community were gathered. Here is where the lunch and coffee breaks will be served.
