I purchased 2 tickets online. A friend wanted a ticket as well. When I returned to the site, I couldn't purchase another ticket. I called their number. A gentleman who spoke excellent English and was very patient assisted me. I had the tickets on my phone, which worked great at the museum.

The Academy in Florence is known as the home of David, Michelangelo's masterpiece. Some people also know there are statues known as the Prisoners. Well, there is much, much more. Statuary, triptychs and crucifixes abound. Check out the 1st (2nd American) floor where few of the hoards go.

4 of us bought skip the line tickets in advance at nearly double the cost of on the day stand in line tickets when we didn't need them. There were only a handful of people waiting when we arrived.The pre purchase ticket system itself works very well though.

Paula 9 days ago

Spending a ton of time in line when you're on vacation is not fun, skip-the-line is really the only way to go. This was a good deal, easy to do, and worked as it says it does. Thanks!

Joseph 8 months ago

This worked well. The Accademia is well signed and was easy to find the reserved signs and the ticket booth. From there quick entry into the museum.

Mary 2 months ago

This excursion meeting place was very difficult to find. It took us 20-30 minutes of asking around showing people our reservation. Tour was cool.

Good to know

It's home to the one and only ‘David', the great work Michelangelo accomplished at just 26.

You'll know it from the long queues. Needless to say, it's best to get your tickets in advance.

It's a small museum and you can see more or less everything in an hour.

Michelangelo's ‘David' is deliberately out of proportion, with an unusually large head and hands (especially the right). Some say this is because it was intended for the cathedral rooftop and these features had to be emphasized to be seen from below.

Entry is free for those under 18 years of age.

The museum is closed Mondays, so plan your schedule accordingly.

Florentines adopted Michelangelo's ‘David‘ as a civic symbol, at a time when they were threatened by neighbor states and the recently exiled Medicis.

Classical music and opera fans will love the Museum of Musical Instruments, where you can see original instruments by Stradivari and Cristofori (the inventor of the piano).

It's not only about Michelangelo's ‘David'. There are other famous works to see, such as ‘Prisoners' (or Slaves) by Michelangelo, ‘The Rape of the Sabine Women' by Giambologna, ‘Tree of Life' by Pacino di Buonaguida, and the ‘Coronation of the Virgin' by Jacopo di Cione.

The inside story

The Academy of Fine Arts of Florence was founded in 1563 thanks to Cosimo I de’ Medici, who also was the force behind the construction of the Uffizi Gallery, together with artist and architect Giorgio Vasari. Today it is the permanent home of one of the best-known art galleries in the world, the Academy Gallery.

The very first pieces of this collection are believed to be the two great chalk replicas of the Giambologna statues that today can be found in the city’s Palazzo Vecchio, while today the Academy Gallery is most commonly known as being home to Michelangelo’s greatly celebrated ‘David’.
