The Basilica di San Lorenzo is one of the largest churches of Florence, Italy, situated at the centre of the city s main market district, and the burial place of all the principal members of the Medici family from Cosimo il Vecchio to Cosimo III. It is one of several churches that claim to be the oldest in Florence; when it was consecrated in 393 it stood outside the city walls.
