How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
The Medici parish church, with a glyph at the base of its bell tower.
The real place
Its façade was never built, so it looks as bare in the game as it does today. The game does include the dome of the Chapel of the Princes, which was built in the 17th century.
Visiting
The basilica and the Medici Chapels have separate entrances and tickets. The chapels are entered from the back of the church.
