Continue to the Duomo Baptistry to see its famous doors, replicas of the originals, which you’ll see later in the Duomo Museum.
The next stop is the Duomo Museum, which offers a glimpse of how the Cathedral’s original façade once looked and contains masterpieces by Michelangelo and Donatello. Walk past the lines into the Duomo itself, where you’ll have special access to a room of statues from the Cathedral’s original façade. This tour also gets you past the velvet ropes, so you can take in the Cathedral’s remarkable detailing up close.
