Overview

Embark on a journey through Florence's Accademia Gallery, a treasure trove echoing with Michelangelo's genius. Founded by Grand Duke Pietro Leopoldo in 1784, this gallery enchants with a rich collection of both original and replicated masterpieces.

The odyssey begins with the majestic David, whose imposing presence resonates in the room. The guide, a profound art connoisseur, unveils intricacies of each sculpture, narrating the unique stories behind them.

The gallery became a sanctuary for Michelangelo, housing not just his notable sculptures but also a collection of Gothic and Renaissance paintings rescued from abolished churches and convents.

Contemplating these artworks transports you to Renaissance Florence, immersed in the creativity that flourished within its walls. History comes to life, woven with the magic of each stroke and chisel.

What To Expect

Galleria dell'Accademia

The Accademia Gallery in Florence, once a part of the fine arts academy, traces its origins back to 1784, founded by Grand Duke Pietro Leopoldo. Initially hosting gypsum models by Giambologna, it evolved with an impressive collection of original and replicated artworks, enriched further by Gothic and Renaissance paintings from abolished churches and convents.Selected as Michelangelo's David new home in 1873, the gallery's relocation was prompted by safety concerns in Signoria Square. Over the years, additional Michelangelo masterpieces like the Prisoners, St. Matthew, and Pieta found a home, transforming the Accademia into an unofficial Michelangelo museum.Join our expert English-speaking guide to breathe life into each masterpiece with intriguing stories, unraveling the legacy of one of the world's greatest artists.
