Destinations

The Pitti Palace - Palazzo Pitti is a vast, visually striking building located a short way to the south of the Arno, Florence's river - the chances are you'll arrive at the Pitti having crossed the river via the Ponte Vecchio, the 'old bridge'. The Palace is home to various galleries, most notably the Gallery of Modern Art and the Palatine Gallery, as well as the smaller Silver Museum (Tesoro dei Granduchi) and the Costume Gallery (Galleria del Costume). If you want to visit the Boboli Gardens that lie behind and above the Pitti Palace, then you'll need this other ticket.

The Pitti Palace, Florence

The Pitti Palace is today the largest museum complex in the city, home to a wide range of distinct galleries and exhibitions. The building's core dates from the 1450's, and the largely Renaissance building was originally the town home of Luca Pitti, a clearly enormously wealthy banker. Roughly 100 years later it was purchased by, and became home to the Medici rulers, and their even greater wealth saw an accumulation of fine art and treasures; the building and contents were gifted to the Italian people in 1919.

Opening times:

The Pitti Palace is normally open Tuesday to Sunday, with entrance bookable between 8.15 AM and 5.30 PM (the Palace closes at 6.30 PM.)

There is a wardrobe room where bags of no larger than 40*40*50 cm may be left. If there's a special exhibition running at the time of your visit then your ticket price will include entrance to the exhibition.

    This was a surprise! The gardens are huge and beautiful! This was our first day in Florence as we’d just arrived from Cinque Terre and stowed our bags at the hotel since we couldn’t check in yet. Imagine to our delight and surprise the amazing views from the gardens! Wow! The city of Florence was breathtaking, as were the surrounding views! I highly recommend a visit to the palace and gardens. They are both simply stunning!
