What is inside Pitti Palace?

Pitti Palace is Florence's largest museum complex and the former residence of the Medici, Habsburg-Lorraine, and Savoy dynasties. A single timed-entry ticket grants access to all five museums across three floors, from Renaissance masterpieces in the Palatine Gallery to Medici jewels in the Treasury of the Grand Dukes.

What can I see in the Palatine Gallery?

The Palatine Gallery occupies the first floor and is arranged in the style of a 17th-century picture gallery, with paintings hung floor-to-ceiling across 28 frescoed rooms. The collection includes the world's largest concentration of Raphael works, alongside paintings by Titian, Caravaggio, Rubens, and Tintoretto. Unlike a conventional museum, the decorative arrangement is itself part of the experience.

What are the Royal Apartments like?

The Imperial and Royal Apartments, comprising 14 ceremonial chambers in the south wing, reopened to the public in January 2025 after several years of restoration. Originally furnished by Ferdinando de' Medici, they were later adapted by the Habsburg-Lorraine and Savoy families, giving each room a different historical character.

What else is included?

Your ticket also covers the Gallery of Modern Art on the second floor, the Museum of Costume and Fashion, the Treasury of the Grand Dukes (formerly the Silver Museum) on the ground floor, the Museum of Russian Icons, and the Palatine Chapel.
