Interactive exhibitions, bazaars, and Gucci cuisine in the Palazzo della Mercanzia
“Travelling the world, our kitchen interacts with everything we see, hear and taste.” ––Chef Massimo Bottura
Within a garden that imaginatively explores the creativity of Gucci, Creative Director Alessandro Michele has curated wide ranging pieces dating all the way back to the genesis of the Florentine house in 1921.
But the garden is much more than a museum, delivering a rich, interactive experience as alive as the eclectic inspirations of the brand including memorabilia, ephemera and contemporary art, then goes beyond these touchstones to include a bazaar-like retail space and unique culinary experience.
Enjoy Chef Massimo Bottura’s intimate restaurant, Gucci Osteria, featuring an entirely new menu which takes its inspiration from his three-Michelin-star Osteria Francescana in Modena and the history of cultural exchange in Renaissance Florence. ◼
