Your personal guide will reveal the secrets of the Accademia Gallery and the creation of Michelangelo’s world-renowned masterpiece — the original version of David. You will learn all about this sculpture in a vivid and engaging way. Your guide will also show you the Hall of Prisoners and San Matteo, Michelangelo’s unfinished sculptures.
The Accademia Gallery, built in 1784, was conceived as a true sanctuary devoted to preserving the symbols of Florence.
This guided tour is a must-see for any art lover visiting the cradle of the Renaissance. Your professional guide will share fascinating insights into the tormented life of the Tuscan artist. Michelangelo was not only a sculptor but also a painter, architect, and sensitive poet. However, his genius matched his restlessness — his entire life was marked by a continuous struggle between form and content, between religious devotion and hidden personal desires.
Step back in time and uncover the secrets of Michelangelo on this fascinating tour of the Accademia Gallery. At the end of the guided tour, you will have the opportunity to remain in the museum for as long as you wish
