Once a medieval power hub and later a prison, the Bargello Museum is now home to an incredible collection of Renaissance art.

Start on the ground floor, where you'll see stunning 16th-century Tuscan works. Keep an eye out for Michelangelo’s Bacchus, Tondo Pitti, Brutus, and David-Apollo. You’ll also discover pieces by Ammannati, Cellini, and Giambologna—yes, the famous Flying Mercury is here! The Carrand Collection adds even more treasures, like intricate ivories and bronzes. Next, dive into the early Renaissance, spotlighting Donatello’s incredible Saint George, the Lion, and his celebrated David. Verrocchio’s masterpieces will also leave you in awe.

Finally, head upstairs to marvel at the vibrant glazed terracottas by Andrea and Giovanni Della Robbia, a perfect way to wrap up the tour. This one-hour guided experience hits all the highlights, giving you time to soak it all in. And if you have more time on your hands, you can also take a look at Hermes, San Giorgio and more artworks in the museum.
