Map
Dante’s tomb and the Quadrarco di Braccioforte is a little temple, built in 1780 by the architect Camillo Morigia and houses the sarcophagus with the bones of Dante. The exterior is neo-classical in style and in the interior above the sarcophagus is a 1483 relief by Pietro Lombardo that depicts Dante at a reading desk. In the centre of the temple is an 18th Century lamp kept burning with oil from Tuscan olive trees that is donated annually by the municipality of Florence.
