Direct Access Accademia & David Small Group Guided Tour
Overview
Step into the world of Michelangelo and embark on a journey that delves into his greatest masterpieces - the "David", ''I Prigioni'', ''San Matteo'' and the “Palestrina Pietà”.
Your guide will whisk you away into the fascinating life of Michelangelo, unveiling the secrets and inspirations behind the creation of the world's most famous statue. Listen as they recount the tale of a young artist, dedicating three years of his life to transform a colossal block of raw marble into an imposing and breathtaking sculpture. The David stands before you, a magnificent representation of absolute beauty and strength—a testament to the power and invincibility of the Florentine Republic during its peak of splendor.
As the guided tour comes to a close, the magic doesn't have to end. You have the extraordinary opportunity to stay in the museum as long as you desire.
