Devised to mark the 700th anniversary of Dante's death, our app "In Tuscany with Dante" introduces you to Italy's greatest poet through the words of his Divine Comedy, with Dante himself guiding you to some of the places where he lived and worked. You'll discover medieval Florence and the timeless beauty of the Tuscan countryside with its villages and castles, enjoying fantastic views and revelling in the sounds, sights and tastes of the places where Dante sought and found the inspiration for his immortal poetry.

This is the first app in a series of itineraries entitled "The Great Men and Women of Santa Croce" designed to allow you to discover the illustrious figures whose ideas and actions changed the course of history and of our own lives, and whose memory lives on in Santa Croce.
