It took 16 years to build the Brunelleschi Dome in Florence. He had two domes built, one inside the other to accomplish this feat.
The Florentines sought to build a dome for the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore as a symbol of their city's architectural ambition and cultural significance during the Renaissance. The dome, designed by Filippo Brunelleschi, represented a groundbreaking engineering achievement, showcasing Florence's wealth, innovation, and artistic prowess. Additionally, it aimed to surpass the grandeur of competing cities, reinforcing Florence's status as a center of art and power. The successful completion of the dome was a source of civic pride and a testament to the city's collective identity and vision.
The dome of Florence was huge, that technology had been lost after the collapse of the Roman empire. Brunelleschi literally had to make it up as he went along. A lot of the Renaissance art, especially in Italy, was about rediscovering the Roman techniques. For example, the Renaissance was the first time in hundreds of years that anyone could build an equestrian statue.

The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore was the major church in Florence in the Renaissance period. The origins go back to the Middle Ages, when Italian cities competed to build larger and greater cathedrals. Pisa began its cathedral in 1063, and Siena built its cathedral by around 1260 (Giovanni Pisano later designed the facade).
Salisbury Cathedral was built in just 38 years.
