People from all over the world come to Florence to see him — David. This iconic statue, sculpted by Michelangelo, is widely regarded as one of the most celebrated works of art in history. Towering at over five meters tall, David represents the pinnacle of Renaissance sculpture, capturing both the idealized beauty of the human form and the intense psychological tension of the biblical hero before battle. More than just a statue, David has become a universal symbol of strength, youthful courage, and the enduring power of human creativity.

5.00Easy to book online with my phone . Be aware that a voucher is not a ticket necessarily. We had to find out where to pick up our tickets at a little hole in the wall store. Just pay attention to the fine print. Otherwise, very easy breezy to get into the museum.
David was magnificent!

1.00Buy your own tickets directly from the Academia way in advance. All we got was an entry ticket. Paid more than we needed. Once inside had to pay for my own audio.
