Palazzo Vecchio: Secret Passages Tour
Guided tour of private passages created for the Medici's to avoid enemies and move safely. Real history in real places. Places exist inside Palazzo Vecchio where time seems to have stood still and where it is easier for today's visitors to relive the emotions of the past. Since 2000 the Museum has made many of these special places accessible to the public but they can only be visited by small groups - max. 12 people - accompanied by an expert guide
Palazzo Vecchio: Quartieri Monumentali Tour
During the visit, expert guides reveal and explain this peculiar aspect of Palazzo Vecchio - a true museum in itself - drawing the visitor's attention to artworks that are universally recognised as masterpieces. The visit ends in a place that is normally not open to the public.
Palazzo Vecchio: Invitation to Cosimo's Court
The visit to the Quartieri Monumentali (Monumental Apartments) ends in the Theatre of the Museum Renaissance Civilisation in Florence where the public are granted audience with either Duke Cosimo or Duchess Eleonora, impersonated by animator-actors armed with a sound historical training. Free dialogue between the characters and the visitors illustrates the profound differences between today's society and 16th-century civilisation in Florence, restoring the original cultural context to the works of art in the museum.
Palazzo Vecchio: Fresco painting between the 15th and the 16th centuries
After having acquired the secrets of fresco painting, visitors will also be able to retrace the still visible signs of the variety of techniques used by different artists inside the monumental Quarters. This allows participants in this activity to observe the frescoes from a different angle, guided by a far more in-depth knowledge than that of normal museum visitors.
