Summary
AMinecraftYouTuber has recreated the incredible Duomo Di Firenze Florence Cathedral in impressive detail. ManyMinecraftbuilds seek to replicate real-world locations, and this Florence Cathedral does its Italian counterpart justice.
WhenMinecraftwas released, it only had 36 different blocks for players to decorate with, limiting the creative process for players. Since then, hundreds of blocks have been introduced toMinecraft, making it easier for players to create whatever they imagine. The expanded color pallet with resources like Cherry and Acacia Wood, Terracotta, and Concrete allows more freedom in Creative and Survival alike. Players have made manyMinecraftbuilds with these resources, includingSpongeBob SquarePants' Pineapple home, a golden Mewtwo, the Eiffel Tower, and more. OneMinecraftYouTuber has decided to recreate Italy’s Duomo Di Firenze on an impressive scale utilizing the various blocks and one essential mod.

YouTuber Bubbaflubba recently posted a video detailing how they created the massive Duomo Di Firenze Florence Cathedral. The video starts with the YouTuber explaining the intricacies of cathedrals and how their detail makesrecreating them inMinecraftdifficult. For comparison, they also show the real-life Duomo Di Firenze before transitioning to time-lapsed footage of their build. The YouTuber begins with the front of the Florence Cathedral before working their way to the back of the building, then placing the iconic dome atop the chapel area and returning to the entrance to finalize the process with the adjacent bell tower. The most detailed section of this recreation is the front of the cathedral, which includes a big circular stained-glass window near the top.
What Minecraft Materials Were Used to Create the Florence Cathedral?
Given that the Florence Cathedral is one of the biggest in the world, and the attention to detail in Bubbaflubba’s creation, this may be among themost impressiveMinecraftbuilds. During their video, the YouTuber admits that the intricate details may have been lost in the recreation given that it’s hard to make precise one-to-one copies inMinecraft. Specifically, he points to the little green lines that appear bigger in the build compared to its real-life counterpart. “I kind of used a little bit more green than I wanted to,” said Bubbaflubba during the time-lapsed version of the build process. Bubbaflubba utilized the WorldEdit mod to make the symmetry of the cathedral easier to mimic with its copy-pasting capabilities. According to Bubbaflubba, the main dome required multiple different iterations before they were happy with it.
AsMojang continues to updateMinecraftwith new materials, it may become easier to replicate buildings like the Florence Cathedral with intricate details. Given that a mod was used to create it, fans may need to download WorldEdit to effectively mimic Bubbaflubba’s creation.
