In front of the Cathedral, officially called Santa Maria del Fiore, lies the octagonal Baptistery, which is actually older than the Cathedral. This becomes especially clear when you go inside, and you see the brilliant Byzantine mosaics covering the ceiling. Also of particular importance are the doors on three sides of the building. Especially the last pair of doors, designed by Ghiberti and dubbed the "Doors of Paradise" by Michelangelo are worth a close look. Ghiberti worked more than 25 years on them, and it shows!
