Top things to do in Florence
The most popular sights, with 2026 entrance fees. Prices are adult admission — cheapest at the gate. Many of the best things are free.
| Attraction | Entrance | Time | Why go |
|---|---|---|---|
| Florence Cathedral (Duomo) | Free | 30-45 minutes (nave); add 1-1.5 hours for the Dome climb | Gothic cathedral consecrated in 1436 beneath Filippo Brunelleschi's self-supporting brick dome, the largest of its kind at the time of construction and still the defining feature of the Florence skyline. |
| Uffizi Gallery | €25 | 2-3 hours | State museum in a 16th-century Medici administrative building holding one of the foremost collections of Italian Renaissance painting, including works by Botticelli, Leonardo and Michelangelo. |
| Galleria dell'Accademia | €20 | 1-1.5 hours | Gallery built to house Michelangelo's original David marble statue, moved here in 1873, alongside his unfinished Prisoners sculptures and a collection of Florentine Gothic paintings. |
| Baptistery of San Giovanni | Included | 20-30 minutes | Romanesque octagonal baptistery facing the Duomo, known for Lorenzo Ghiberti's gilded bronze east doors, nicknamed the Gates of Paradise by Michelangelo. |
| Ponte Vecchio | Free | 20-30 minutes | Medieval stone bridge over the Arno rebuilt in 1345 with three segmental arches, lined with jewelry shops and topped by the enclosed Vasari Corridor that once let the Medici cross the river unseen. |

About Florence
Florence crams the Duomo's terracotta dome, the Uffizi's Renaissance masterpieces, and Michelangelo's David into a compact centre you can walk end to end in half an hour. Ochre rooftops, artisan workshops across the Arno in Oltrarno, and the view from Ponte Vecchio at dusk still deliver the postcard version of Tuscany — but the historic core is small, and in high summer it fills to bursting.
