Come to discover one of the most beautiful and evocative Renaissance museums in Florence, accompanied by a professional private guide, you'll reach the highest guided tour quality offered. You'll enter from the priority entrance to the museum, without having to wait in the long queues. Visiting the building you'll admire the shape of a medieval fort, built between the 11th and the 14th century and represented the first seat of the Florentine's government and republic. Subsequently it became a prison, as well as a place of public executions in Florence and finally it was also a convent. The Museum that we know today is house of a huge number of artworks, in most sculptures, statues and bas-reliefs by the greatest Florentine Renaissance artists such as the beautiful Terre Cotte by Luca and Andrea Della Robbia, the statues by Donatello, Mino from Fiesole, Desiderio Da Settignano, the Bottega dei Rossellino, the Formelle Bronzee for the Baptistery of Florence by Lorenzo Ghiberti and Filippo Brunelleschi, works by Giambologna Cellini and some early works by Michelangelo. All this illustrated in a beautiful fourteenth-century frame, the courtyard and the rooms in fact originate from the fourteenth century. Although considered "secondary museum" in Florence, history, sculpture and art make it one of the most fascinating Renaissance museums. After the private guided tour, you can explore the museum freely, without time limits.
