Incredible Florence is an unprecedented journey through the 2000 years of Florence's history. An exciting, 40-minute-long multimedia production, conceived and produced by Crossmedia Group. In the unparalleled setting of Santo Stefano al Ponte, near to Ponte Vecchio, an immersive experience that is at once show and exhibition: the engrossing story of Florentine places, events, and great historical figures with their immotal works, becomes a unique opportunity to better know, understand and share as never before the incredible history of a city that is both a masterpiece and a world heritage site. Rich in special effects, 3-D reconstructions, multiple projections of images, and original filmed pieces, Incredible Florence gives audiences of all ages and origins, Italian and international, the opportunity to let themselves be led through the centuries, following a succession of different sensations. The exhibition area offers a complete and immersive use of multimedia, made possible by the exceptional visual impact of the images produced by the Matrix X-Dimension system, designed exclusively for this video installation. 24 laser projectors transmit over 40 million pixels onto the 11 giant screens of the impressive and striking set-up: just think that on the central and largest screen - 10x13m. (130 m2) - you will be able to enjoy a resolution 6 times greater than Full HD. The pleasant impression of the privileged experience of "being inside" a unique history is completed by the sound effects and the magnificent original soundtrack, composed for this purpose by the versatile musician Marco Lamioni, reproduced in extremely high quality by a state-of-the-art 3D audio system.

Over the years the Collection has grown so much, now reaching more than 243 models, that is has overtaken various collections in museums all around the world. Each of the machines in the Collection has been built using materials of the time being wood, metal, ropes and fabrics and interestingly, in the course of construction, many astounding mechanical findings have been revealed. Our research team has expanded over the years and now includes a really talented study group of scholars consisting of Historians, Engineers, Architects, Educators, Artisans and Craftsmen, whose expertise and knowledge has contributed enormously to improve the outcome of our scientific and historical research. The Collection has also been enriched with ‘Vitruvian Machines’, at least those we know of thanks to the writings of that great Roman Engineer of the first century BC., by other important ‘Greek-Roman Machines’ and some from the era of ‘Ancient Egypt’. Our research team also undertakes projects on behalf of third parties and is very proud of the rediscovery of the lost mechanism of Leonardo’s Robot and a new hypothesis for the motion of the Mechanical Lion. Of key importance to us is that the findings and rewards of our research and work is accessible for everyone to witness and enjoy. Therefore, in addition to The Collection being available to Museums, Art Galleries, Organizations, private exhibitions and for shopping mall displays, we’ve made provision for rental opportunities to smaller groups for School activities, Conferences and even Renaissance themed dinners.
We visited this small museum in August and were fascinated by de Vinci’s inventions. Although de Vinci is best known for his art, de Vinci was also proficient in drawing, painting, sculpture, architecture, science, music, mathematics, engineering, just to mention a few. The museum showcased models of de Vinci’s ideas. Tickets were only €7 and we enjoyed the museum at a leisurely pace as it wasn’t busy like all the art museums.

You will admire inventions of an extraordinary visual impact, operating and life-size machines, such as the ” war machines ” with the great tank, or the “civil engineering machines” such as the Brunelleschi’s crane and the “flying machines“: you will then walk back through the ambitious dream of Leonardo’s life: the flight.In addition to his engineering projects you’ll find in a unique exhibition space, the reproductions of his most important paintings, including the Last Supper, the Mona Lisa and the Annunciation. A great opportunity to admire them all together and to compare them! The rooms of the museum are enriched with multimedia displays which will help you in understanding the functioning of the machines and making your visit even more enjoying.
