Step by Step

By purchasing these tickets for the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence you will have the opportunity to visit one of the most representative legendary castles of the Renaissance era.

You will have 3 options:

  • Buy tickets for the Palazzo Vecchio Museum.
  • Buy tickets for the Arnolfo Tower of Palazzo Vecchio
  • Purchase combined tickets for the Museum and Tower

This building, built between 1299 and 1314, represents the power that the city possessed at the time. Later, in the 16th century, Duke Cosimo I de Medici gave the order to refurbish it for use as his official residence.

The palace transformed its façade more towards the style of a castle, a look that it retains to this day. Its evolution over time continued and in 1800 it became the seat of Parliament, while today it houses the offices of the Florence City Council.

During the tour, you will be able to see its numerous rooms, including the Sala del Cinquecento, which is 54 metres long and some 18 metres high, the largest in the city.

Other must-sees are the Salone dei 500, where you will be amazed by the frescoes of the artist Giorgio Vasari; the Sala dei Gigli, the Hall of the Geographical Maps and the Hall of the last Chancellor of the Republic, where the rulers met to discuss the most important and critical issues of the region.

    The history behind this palace and the enormous amount of art it contains is impressive. Seeing a place like this was the best gift I could have given myself on my holiday.
