Michaelangelo's tomb, created by Giorgio Vasari and assistants, is only one of many tombs and memorials
in the side aisles of Sta. Croce.
Other greats buried in Sta. Croce include Galileo Galilei, Machiavelli, Giacomo Rossini, Enrico Fermi, Marconi, and a memorial
to Dante Aligheri, who is actually buried in Ravenna.
The church has masterpieces of sculpture and frescoes by Donatello,
Giotto and Renaissance artists too numerous to mention in this brief note.
