In 1458, the Pitti family completed a grand palace in Florence. The next year, the powerful Medici family bought the Palazzo Pitti and made it a center of power, art, and civil life. Construct your own model Palace. Create a garden amphitheater and players to revel and perform. Study the royal portraits displayed in the palace's gallery and add yours. Construct a model galley to re-enact battles in the Palace's courtyard, flooded for the spectacle. Construct royal barges to ferry visitors up and down the Arno river.
