    Bargello Museum

    Once a medieval fortress, this museum is the heart of Renaissance sculpture, showcasing works by Michelangelo, Donatello, and more.

    Donatello’s David

    The first free-standing nude sculpture since antiquity, this bronze masterpiece redefined art in the 15th century.

    Michelangelo’s Bacchus

    An intoxicating, rebellious take on the Roman god of wine, crafted when Michelangelo was just 21.

    Verrocchio’s Saint George

    A striking marble statue of Florence’s patron saint, capturing both motion and emotion.
