Itinerary Description
You think you’re all maxed out on art after the Uffizi Gallery? The seven different museums inside the Pitti Palace will not leave you disappointed, even if you think you’ve had enough.
Artists such as Raphael, Rubens, Titian, Caravaggio, Botticelli, and many more all have some of their finest works on the walls of this impressive museum palace!
Originally the Pitti Palace was the town residence of Luca Pitti, an ambitious Florentine banker, but since the mid-1500 the palace was the luxurious home of the famous Medici family. Now it houses extraordinary art collections in sumptuous decorations, in one of the most monumental late Renaissance Florentine buildings.
A collection of art that is continuously added to, the Palatine Gallery, the Royal Apartments, the Porcelain Museum, the Costume Gallery, the art objects, the fountains, and the rare plants of the surrounding Boboli Gardens all tell a story of Florence, of Medici, and of Renaissance. An overwhelming experience not to be missed.
