Walk with me to Galileo’s Tomb in Florence!

🕯️ Step inside Florence’s greatest sanctuary of science, art, and memory.

Join me on a moving pilgrimage to the Basilica of Santa Croce in Florence, Italy, the final resting place of Galileo Galilei, the father of modern science. Discover the story behind Galileo’s burial, the Catholic Church's long-standing opposition to his ideas, and how, nearly a century after his death, he finally received the honor he deserved.

We walk past the Uffizi Gallery, stop by Museo Galileo, admire the statue of Dante, and explore the beautiful Santa Croce — Florence’s “Temple of Italian Glories.” Inside lie Michelangelo, Machiavelli, Marconi, Rossini, and Galileo himself — surrounded by monuments to Italy’s greatest minds.

Why was Galileo denied burial for nearly 100 years?
Who secretly protected his writings?
Who was Vincenzo Viviani?
What’s the truth about the Inquisition and his daughter, Sister Maria Celeste?
And what happened to his missing finger and vertebra?

This video is a powerful blend of history, science, faith, and legacy — all wrapped into a soul-stirring journey through Florence’s most sacred space.
