The Accademia Gallery was founded in 1784 by Grand Duke Pietro Leopoldo as part of the Academy of Fine Arts, designed to showcase a distinguished collection of original masterpieces and classical casts.
In 1873, the city of Florence designated this gallery as the permanent residence for Michelangelo’s David, safeguarding the masterpiece from the elements in Piazza della Signoria. This location holds special significance as the Accademia is situated on the same square where a young Michelangelo first learned the art of sculpting.
In addition to the David, visitors can explore Michelangelo’s unfinished works, the “Slaves” or “Prigioni,” which seem to be attempting to break free from the raw marble. These compelling sculptures provide a unique insight into the artist’s creative process and his philosophy of “liberating” the figure within the stone.
An expert guide will animate each masterpiece by revealing the captivating history and hidden stories behind the works of one of the world’s most renowned artists.
