   • Marble Facade. San Miniato has Florence’s emblematic geometric white and green marble facade. The gorgeous facade gives you a preview of what you’ll see inside.
   • San Miniato Interior. When you walk through the turquoise doors, you’ll find a rather dark interior. It’s a bit difficult to see inside the church. Let your eyes adjust.
   • The Crypt. The arches lead you down underground to the crypt, the realm of the dead. If you descend into the crypt area, perhaps the church’s main highlight, you’ll find a mystical ancient space.
   • The Presbytery and Apse Mosaics. If you leave the crypt area and make your way up the stairs, you’ll land in the Presbytery. That was the choir area reserved for the priests.
