Excellent communication from the guide and very friendly. The visit was fabulous and because of the low season we were able to be very close to most of the works. An excellent experience and a very good option for those who plan to visit the museum.

I walked right in despite being early. Recommend the earliest slots. The museum has a tightly curate collection of 13th to early 16th century. Some of the best I have seen. And of course there is David.

The David is an outstanding and moving sculpture! In addition to David we discovered the music room full of amazing instruments! The museum guide at this station is a musician and loved explaining the history of each piece. Really enjoyed our visit.

Your experience

Enter the Accademia Gallery and find yourself in the heart of Renaissance brilliance. Located between two ancient monasteries, the gallery immerses you immediately in art and history. Begin in the Hall of the Colossus, where Giambologna’s marble sculpture Rape of the Sabines takes center stage, surrounded by paintings from masters like Botticelli, Paolo Uccello, and Perugino. Walk onward to the Hall of the Prisoners, a room that holds four of Michelangelo's captivating unfinished sculptures—Atlas, Bearded Slave, Awakening Slave, and Young Slave—each revealing traces of the artist’s vision, forever frozen in stone.

Moving through the gallery, you’ll encounter the Tribune, where Michelangelo’s David stands in all his glory under a radiant skylight. This legendary sculpture, with its powerful and meticulous detail, captivates every viewer, transforming even the most casual visitor into an admirer. Nearby, the Museum of Musical Instruments offers another dimension of history, showcasing over 50 extraordinary pieces from the Grand Ducal Collection. Here, you’ll see creations like a harpsichord by Bartolomeo Cristofori, credited as the inventor of the piano, and a tenor viola crafted by the renowned Antonio Stradivari.
