Exceptional heritage to discover

In the city of Florence, the concentration of the cultural heritage in a relatively small space – that of the historical centre – is quite astonishing, and includes art, historical monuments, scientific collections, and important sites from the naturalistic point of view.
Including the provincial territory as well, there are some 170 museums, in addition to churches of extraordinary beauty, villas, historical gardens, squares, streets, and antique palaces, so Florence can reasonably be defined as an "open air museum".
This section offers in-depth information about the cultural heritage of Florence so that you can find descriptions and opening hours of the museums, galleries, palaces, and churches, and also discover all the news in terms of new openings.

Galleria dell'Accademia

Florence most famous statue stands here, in the Accademia or “Michelangelo Museum” : it is the David.

The Gallery lies on a site once occupied by two convents. The core of the collection was established in 1784 when Peter Leopold donated a group of ancient paintings to the Academy of Fine Arts so they might serve as practice models for students.
