Why choose this Florence tour ?
The Pitti Palace – Palazzo Nuovo as opposed to the Palazzo Vecchio, Old Palace – is where the Medici, and later the Lorraine Grand-Dukes made their homes. If we include the Kings of Italy, three reigning dynasties lived here.
Impressive interiors, state rooms and bright frescoes are waiting for you at the Pitti Palace. You will find here one of the best painting collections of Florence, with masterpieces by Raphael, Rubens, Titian and Caravaggio.
The Palatine Gallery at the Pitti Palace still has the character of a private collection. Items are in the same places they occupied during the Lorraine Period. The placement reflects their personal tastes rather than the now usual chronological museum disposition.
The tour includes a walk through the Royal Apartments and the Museum of the Treasure of the Grand-ducal family. Big and small, all extremely precious, the objects on display are in such quantities that it might be even overwhelming!
