Accademia Gallery | Home to Michelangelo’s ‘David’

The Accademia Gallery in Florence is a cultural haven showcasing Renaissance art, notably Michelangelo's iconic David. Its rich collection includes masterpieces, sculptures and paintings. Interestingly, it also houses a unique collection of rare musical instruments — from the private collections of various royal families in the Tuscan region. A trip to this museum provides an immersive journey into the artistic brilliance of Italy's cultural heritage.

Things to know before booking Accademia Gallery tickets

During the high season, same-day tickets are often unavailable, especially for popular time slots, and ticketing queues can stretch up to 2 hours. Booking tickets online saves you time and ensures you don’t miss your preferred entry.

Timed entry tickets grant you access to the Accademia within a specific time slot, but you’ll still need to queue at the ticket counter before entry.

Skip-the-line tickets are a great way to avoid this wait. These tickets let you bypass the ticketing queue entirely and head straight to the entrance, saving significant time, especially during peak hours.

For an even smoother experience, hosted entry tickets are a great option. A host will meet you at the entrance, collect your ticket for you, and help you enter the gallery. Keep in mind, though, that a host is not a guide—they won’t stay with you or provide commentary.

Pair hosted entry with an audio guide to explore the gallery at your own pace while listening to fascinating stories about its masterpieces.

Guided tours are led by experts who share captivating insights into the gallery’s history and artwork. With a guide, you’ll learn all about Michelangelo’s David and discover other treasures you might otherwise miss.

If you’re not a fan of crowds, a small group tour is an excellent choice. Enjoy an up-close and peaceful view of Michelangelo’s 17-foot-tall statue of David on an intimate private tour with only a handful of people.

If you want to make the most of your time in Florence, consider a combo ticket for the Accademia and Uffizi Galleries. These two museums showcase the very best of Florentine art and culture, and combo tickets allow you to visit on different days so you can explore each at your own pace.

Accademia Gallery artworks: Must-see exhibits

1/4

David

This one needs no introduction — David is what draws scores of people world over to the Accademia Gallery. The sheer mastery of carving a colossal marble figure with such anatomical precision and delicate details is breathtaking.

Michelangelo's Slaves

Unlike most sculptures that strive for polished perfection, the "Slaves" embrace their unfinished state. The chisel marks remain visible, revealing Michelangelo's thought process and the evolving form emerging from the raw marble.

Rape of the Sabines at Accademia

Witness Giambologna’s sculpture in the Mannerist technique, showcasing the abduction of a Sabine woman. The sculpture conveys the tension and drama accompanying the action of violent capture.

Cassone Adimari

This is an intricately decorated wedding chest created by Renaissance artist Apollonio di Giovanni in the 15th century. It is adorned with detailed scenes like dancing couples, colorful drapery and attention to worn garments.
