How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
Lorenzo de' Medici's palace, a story location with a database entry.
The real place
It was built from 1444, and the game correctly leaves out the 17th-century Riccardi extension. Benozzo Gozzoli frescoed the Magi Chapel inside in about 1459.
Visiting
Entry is ticketed. The Magi Chapel admits small groups on timed entry, so book ahead at busy times.
