The Medici Villa and the Still Life Museum are located in Poggio a Caiano, a small town in the province of Pistoia. The Villa was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2013 as an example of Tuscan Renaissance architecture. The Villa was designed by Giuliano da Sangallo, a renowned architect of the Italian Renaissance, for Lorenzo the Magnificent in 1492. The building was constructed on top of the hill to stand as a symbol of architecture over nature. The Villa passed through many different families until it came into the hands of the Savoy family, who turned it into a country residence. The interiors bear witness to the noble transitions through the differences in style. In particular, on the main floor, the majestic Hall of Leo X features late 19th-century furnishings and Tuscan fresco cycles from the 16th century. The frescoes were created by artists such as Pontormo, Franciabigio, Alessandro Allori, and Andrea del Sarto, painters of the Renaissance in Florence. The second floor of the Villa houses the Still Life Museum, which preserves over 200 paintings from the Medici collections. The exhibited paintings, as the name of the Museum suggests, mostly depict still lifes with fruit, vegetables, meat, and fish. The exterior of the Villa consists of a garden with a large 19th-century lemon house and monumental 16th-century stables.
