Giant 16th-Century “Colossus” Sculpture in Florence, Italy Has Entire Rooms Hidden Inside

In Florence, Italy there’s a 35-foot-tall sculpture called Appennino that was erected in the late 1500s by Italian sculpture Giambologna. This Giant ‘Colossus’ 16th-Century sculpture, looks magnificent from the outside, but we were amazed to find out that it’s actually a building, the coolest part is that there are little rooms hidden inside of it, complete with a couple benches and, well, not much else.

If we’re being honest with ourselves, though, we would totally live inside this huge sculpture of a mountain giant in Italy. A few lamps, maybe a nice rug or something…we could make it work.

This epic colossus was erected in the late 1500s by renowned Italian sculptor Giambologna.

The mountain god is 35 feet tall and stands in Florence, Italy.
