Accademia Gallery & David Skip-the-Line Ticket

Forget the line at Accademia Gallery- you've got available access now.

Marvel at Michelangelo's greatest works-the marble statue of David is 17 feet in height.

Such a statue was raised to represent civil liberties in defense against more potent rival states in Florenc, while it was an independent city-state free from state threats, and only later wedged under the heel of the odious Medici family.

Wander afterward through former convents as rooms in a side gallery lay out some of the major works from talent students of Design Academy, Fine Arts Academy, and outlawed convents.

The old musical instrument collection from Cherubini Conservatory concludes your visit to Accademia- you hear centuries-old violins; one among the earliest keyboard instruments; and ancient wind instruments.
