description The Battle of Lepanto, which constituted a new era in Mediterranean history, is an important event that affected the subsequent developments in the Mediterranean for both the Ottomans and the Christian countries. It is also considered a turning point, due to its technological and psychological aspects. One of the states that participated in the battle against the Ottomans was the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. The participation of the Tuscan galleys in this battle (under the Papal banner) also paved the way for the emergence of miscellaneous historical records in the Florentine archives and other sources. Thus, this study investigates the role of the Tuscan galleys in this battle and reveals some lesser known issues about the Lepanto in Turkish literature, based on Florentine archival sources and secondary literature.
