Uffizi Gallery, National art museum in Florence, Italy
The museum extends across two floors of a Renaissance palace, displaying paintings and sculptures from the Middle Ages through the Modern period.
Giorgio Vasari designed this building in 1560 as administrative offices for the Medici family, which later became a public art gallery in 1769.
The collection includes works from Italian masters like Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, and Michelangelo, along with German, Dutch, and Flemish paintings.
The museum opens Wednesday through Sunday from 8:15 AM to 6:30 PM, with extended hours until 10:00 PM on Tuesdays through December 2024.
The Vasari Corridor connects the museum to Palazzo Pitti across the Arno River, passing above the Ponte Vecchio bridge.
