Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Cathedral of Florence, known as the Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore, is famous for its distinctive Renaissance architecture. It features geometric patterns of green-and-white marble, a minimal use of windows (fenestration), a massive octagonal dome designed by Filippo Brunelleschi, and a horizontal, earthbound quality in its design. However, it does not have twin bell towers; the cathedral has a single large bell tower (campanile) designed by Giotto, which stands adjacent to the cathedral but is not a twin structure.
