Corridoio Vasariano (Pass By)

The Vasari Corridor is a hidden architectural gem of Florence, a secret elevated passageway that weaves through the heart of the city’s historic center. Built in 1565 by Giorgio Vasari for Duke Cosimo I de’ Medici, it was designed to allow the ruling family to move safely and privately between their residence at the Pitti Palace and the seat of government at Palazzo Vecchio. Stretching over a kilometer, the corridor passes through the Uffizi Gallery, crosses the Arno River above the Ponte Vecchio, and winds behind buildings and churches with discreet elegance. Once lined with portraits and self-portraits by artists from the Renaissance to the 20th century, the corridor offers a unique perspective on Florence, both literally and historically, revealing the city’s power, artistry, and intrigue from above.
