Michelangelo’s David timed entry ticket : Florence

Visiting Michelangelo's David at the Accademia Gallery in Florence is an awe-inspiring experience.

• Michelangelo's David is considered one of the greatest masterpieces of Renaissance sculpture. The statue represents the biblical hero David who defeated the giant Goliath with a single stone. The statue is admired not only for its artistic brilliance but also for its symbolic representation of courage and triumph of good over evil.
• David stands at an impressive 17 feet (5.17 meters) tall, showcasing Michelangelo's mastery in sculpting the human form. The level of detail, from the veins on the hands to the tension in the muscles, is extraordinary.
• Upon entering the Accademia Gallery, you'll find David in the Hall of the Prisoners (Galleria dell'Accademia di Firenze - Sala dei Prigioni), a room specifically designed to house this monumental sculpture. The gallery has been carefully arranged to highlight the statue and allow visitors to appreciate it from various angles.
• David is one of the most famous artworks in the world, and the Accademia Gallery can get quite busy, especially during peak tourist seasons.
