A place where ancient and modern beauty merge

Just a few steps from the centre of Florence, between red brick walls and paving worn by old rail tracks, there is a place where ancient and modern beauty merge.

Stazione Leopolda is a beautiful and unique location that has evolved from an early nineteenth-century railway station into a hub for creative people: a meeting point for those who love to free their imagination, meet, and design special events.
