Orsanmichele: tra storia, fede e leggende fiorentine
Visits curated by museum staff
Galleria dell’Accademia di Firenze e Musei del Bargello present: Orsanmichele: tra storia, fede e leggende fiorentine.
Starting on Monday 9 February, a new series of tours will explore the monumental complex of Orsanmichele, a symbol of the ancient arts and guilds and a place of worship.
The tours, led by museum staff, will allow the public to learn about the masterpieces of the Florentine Renaissance, such as the tabernacles outside the building and the large sculptures by Donatello, Ghiberti and Andrea del Verrocchio on display on the first floor of the museum.
Not only that, but the tour will also recount, through anecdotes and curiosities, the history of this extraordinary monumental complex and of the Madonna delle Grazie, a sacred image housed in the splendid Tabernacle by Orcagna, a masterpiece of Gothic art located inside the church.
