The church of Santa Croce in Florence is most known for the famous Italians buried there (which is why it is referred to as the church of 'Italian Glories'). This basilica is the final resting place of many renowned Italians such as Michelangelo, Machiavelli and composer Gioacchino Rossini just to name a few.
When the Medici marched towards Florence on behalf of Pope Julius II, it was Machiavelli who was entrusted with the city's defenses. Despite his efforts, Machiavelli's troops were no match for the papal militia. In 1512 they decimated Prato, a fortified town just outside Florence.
