The Liceo statale "Niccolò Machiavelli" is a high school in the historic center of Florence, in Oltrarno, named after Niccolò Machiavelli. In 2020 it offers the courses Liceo classico, Liceo delle Scienze Umane (also with social economic option), Liceo Linguistico and Liceo Scientifico. It has a student population of over 1700, making it the second most popoulated high school in the city and in the province[1]. Initially in the Fortezza da Basso, since 2004 it has been based in Palazzo Rinuccini, in Via S. Spirito. The branch, which houses the international linguistic and international scientific addresses, is located in Palazzo Frescobaldi, also known as Della Missione. It was one of the oldest in Italy normal schools for girls and hosted the courses of one of the two Royal Higher Education Institutes.

History

[edit]

Liceo Ginnasio Niccolò Machiavelli

[edit]

The Liceo Ginnasio Niccolò Machiavelli was created in 1968, following the transfer of the Fortezza da Basso from the military to the civilian state property, which took place the previous year. It is the youngest classical high school in the city. The building that housed the high school today is the Machiavelli pavilion of the exhibition center at the Fortezza, for which renovations are planned in 2020-21[2].

Istituto Magistrale Gino Capponi

[edit]

Scuola magistrale sperimentale femminile (Magistral and Experimental School for women)

[edit]

In 1860 the Magistral and Experimental School for women was born in Palazzo Frescobaldi, one of the nine in Italy, an experimental school with different timetables from the rest of the Italian teaching schools[3]. The experimental school was suppressed in 1969 and, after its reorganization by a commission, the Scuola Normale Feminine in Florence was created[4] which continued to operate until 1824, the year of its conversion into a Magistral Institute.

Regio Istituto Superiore di Magistero (Royal Higher Female Magisterium Institute)

[edit]

From 1882 until 1901, the year in which he moved to via del Parione[5]Palazzo Frescobaldi also housed the Royal Higher Female Magisterium Institute, one of the only two in Italy, together with that of Rome[6]. In 1901 it took on its own independent headquarters.

Istituto Magistrale (Teach Institute)

[edit]

In 1924, following the Gentile reform which abolished the Normal school and created the Magistral Institutes, the school was converted into a Magistral Institute and was named after Gino Capponi[7].

In the form of a Magistral Institute, the school continued to exist until 1997, when it was merged with the Liceo Ginnasio Machiavelli.

Liceo Statale Niccolò Machiavelli (o Machiavelli-Capponi)

[edit]

The current Niccolò Machiavelli State High School was born in 1997 from the merger of the two aforementioned educational institutions[8]. In 2004, due to the start of a renovation and reuse of the Fortezza da Basso[9]the classical high school, still at the Fortezza, moved to Palazzo Rinuccini, formerly the seat of the Lucrezia Tornabuoni Professional Institute, and renovated in that year. The Magistral Institute (now of Human Sciences) was moved from its historic headquarters in Palazzo Rinuccini and in Palazzo Frescobaldi the International Linguistic and Scientific Addresses were born, which provide for the common two-year period[10].

Architecture

[edit]

Palazzo Rinuccini

[edit]
The theatre og Palazzo Rinuccini

Palazzo Rinuccini is actually the union of several adjacent buildings built separately and then joined in the eighteenth century by a single facade. In addition to the facade, other important works were carried out in the eighteenth century: the stairs, the garden and many of the frescoes and statues date back to that time. Between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the Rinuccini bought neighboring buildings with which they enlarged the building to make stables. In the following century some parts of the ancient stables became the Rinuccini Theater, annexed and used by the school for theatrical performances and conferences. After the end of the male heirs of the family, the palace passed to the daughters of the last heir. Later it was purchased by the municipality, used as a professional institute (Istituto Professionale Lucrezia Tornabuoni) and then, in 1997, purchased by the province, renovated and used as the seat of the Machiavelli high school in 2004.[11]

Palazzo Frescobaldi or della Missione

[edit]
The Palazzo della Missione

The mission palace is built where once was the most important palace of the Frescobaldi family. Little or nothing remains of this ancient building: it was destroyed by a fire between the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries and then partially demolished and rebuilt in the sixteenth century. From the 16th century it was occupied by various religious congregations; during the period of Firenze Capitale it was the seat of the ministry of the navy, and then definitively became a school building.[7][11]

Library

[edit]

The library includes the holdings of the former Machiavelli institutes (over 6000 volumes) and Capponi (over 8000 volumes)[12]. Furthermore, since 2017, cataloging according to the Decimal Dewey system has begun. The online catalog is accessible from the official website.

"Confucius" class experimentation

[edit]

Since 2013, first in Tuscany, the school has activated, in collaboration with the university Sant'Anna di pisa and with the university of Chongqing in China , the Confucius project, which provides the possibility for thirty students of the institute to attend the Chinese university for a good part of the year [13]

Statistics (years 2010-2015)

[edit]

The student population is made up of about 2/3 of female students and about 1/3 of students. There is a low number of foreigners, including those of the second generation that do not exceed on average 150 units. About 70-80 people pass the exam. [1]
