Undoubtedly, when it comes to Uffizi Gallery, Florence can be more than proud of its heritage. The origin of the Galleria degli Uffizi goes back to the period of the splendor of the Republic. Cosimo I de’Medici, first Gran Duque of Tuscany, commissioned the construction between 1560 and 1580. The building was initially meant to serve as offices for judges, merchants, and magistrates of Florence. The gallery as we know it today officially opened its door two hundred years later in 1769.

The Uffizi entrance fee entails a whimsical art journey through time. There are over 50 rooms filled with art pieces ranging from 12th to 16th century. You will witness works of Gothic painters like Giotto and Cimabue; renaissance painters such as Paolo Uccello and Masaccio; as well as stunning paintings such as Allegory of Spring and the Birth of Venus by Sandro Botticelli.
