Other Florence museums: tickets, prices, hours and what to pick

The Uffizi, the Accademia and the Duomo are only the start. This page gathers other Florence museums with their tickets, prices and hours: Galileo, the Opera del Duomo Museum, Novecento, Pinocchio, the Innocenti, Orsanmichele, the Brancacci Chapel, Ferragamo, HZERO and more. Use the Tiqets booking box above for dates, then read the details below: each museum has its own rules (closing days, timed entry, passes).

Museo Galileo — science on the Arno

Piazza dei Giudici 1. It is not a state or civic museum, so it takes no part in the free first-Sunday scheme (#domenicalmuseo) or the City’s free Sundays for residents. Open Monday and Wednesday–Sunday 9:30–18:00, Tuesday 9:30–13:00. Full €14; reduced €7 (ages 6–18 and Toscana Student Card holders); family €32; under 6s free; €1 extra per ticket online. Allow 1–2 hours. The Firenze Card is accepted. The “Mirabilia Graphica” exhibition runs until 18 October 2026. Best from age 7–8; photos without flash; free cloakroom; with a ticket bought at the desk you can leave and come back the same day. Step-free access is from Lungarno Anna Maria Luisa de’ Medici 2.

Ticket sales stop 30 minutes before closing. Online tickets can be changed to another date for €0.50, and an open-date gift ticket (valid one year) is sold online only. Guided tours for small groups of up to 14 cost €65 per group (60 minutes) on top of the ticket. Small dogs are allowed if carried or in a carrier. There is no café inside, so plan a coffee along the river.

Opera del Duomo Museum

Piazza del Duomo 9: 6,000 m² housing the original Gates of Paradise, the Bandini Pietà and Donatello’s Magdalene. There is no museum-only ticket: you enter with the Ghiberti Pass (€15), Giotto Pass (€20) or Brunelleschi Pass (€30), sold by the Opera. If you only want the museum, take the Ghiberti Pass (Baptistery + Museum + Santa Reparata, no climbs); the Giotto Pass adds the Bell Tower, the Brunelleschi Pass the Dome. Open 8:30–19:00, closed on the first Tuesday of the month. Free audioguide in the OperaGuide app. Not covered by the Firenze Card.

We are an independent guide. If you book through our Tiqets or GetYourGuide links we may earn a commission; the price you pay does not change.

Museo Novecento

Piazza Santa Maria Novella 10, next to Santa Maria Novella. Twentieth-century art. Open 11:00–20:00, closed Thursdays. Full €13, reduced €9, under 18s free, €1 extra online. The “Ottone Rosai” exhibition runs until 4 October 2026.

Pinocchio Museum Experience

Via Ricasoli 44 (Palazzo Gerini), near the Accademia — handy with children after seeing David. Full €14, reduced €10 (ages 4–17 and students up to 25), under 3s free; family tickets €35 (2 adults + 1 child), €44 (2 + 2) and €52 (2 + 3). Open every day 10:00–19:00, with immersive visits starting every 40 minutes (10:00–18:00); allow about an hour. Online sales close an hour before your slot; groups of 12 or more by quote; audioguide in Italian, English, French and Spanish.

Museo degli Innocenti

Piazza Santissima Annunziata 13. Full €9, reduced €7, free for children up to age 10. Open every day 10:00–19:00 (last entry one hour before), closed 25 December. The Caffè del Verone on the terrace is open without a museum ticket (usually 10:00–21:30). An Artemisia Gentileschi exhibition opens on 21 October 2026. It is not part of the free first-Sunday scheme. You get a €6 discount with an Accademia ticket from the same day (and other agreements). With small children, the Innocenti (free up to 10) plus the terrace café often beats a second paid museum.

Orsanmichele

Via dell’Arte della Lana. Church and museum are no longer free: tickets now cost €10 full, €2 reduced (EU citizens 18–24) and nothing for under 18s. Open Tuesday–Sunday 8:30–18:30 — the only GAMB venue with different hours from the usual 8:15–18:50. It is not accessible to visitors with reduced mobility and has no toilets.

Brancacci Chapel

Piazza del Carmine 14: frescoes by Masaccio, Masolino and Filippino Lippi. Full €15, reduced €10. Open Monday and Wednesday–Saturday 10:00–17:00, Sunday 13:00–17:00, closed Tuesdays. A maximum of 10 people at a time, for up to 30 minutes: booking is strongly recommended for individuals and mandatory (free) for groups. English guided tours are available on booking platforms. It is not a place to wander, so book before promising it to your travel companions.

Museo Salvatore Ferragamo

Palazzo Spini Feroni, Piazza Santa Trinita 5/R. Full €10; reduced €6 (Touring Club Italiano, Turbopass, Cultura Card) or €5 (students, Feltrinelli, Unicoop, FAI and HZERO ticket holders, among others); free for under 18s and over 65s. Open daily 10:30–19:30; closed 1 January, 15 August and 25 December. The exhibition on the company’s founder has been extended to 14 February 2027. The museum does not publish a last-entry time. Free guided visits can be booked by email. Third-party sellers may add fees, but the museum’s own price is €10 (museo.ferragamo.com).

HZERO — model railway museum

Piazza degli Ottaviani 2r (not 8). A 280 m² H0-scale model railway. Open Wednesday–Sunday 10:00–19:00, closed Monday and Tuesday. Full €14, children aged 4–13 €7; family tickets €24 (1 adult + 2 under 18s), €29 (2 + 1), €34 (2 + 2) and €41 (2 + 3); groups of 8 or more €8 each plus €1 booking. Workshops for ages 2–10.

How to choose in two days

The Brancacci Chapel and Orsanmichele can seem minor, but they reward anyone who has already seen the Uffizi and wants frescoes or sculpture without the same queues.

Passes and cards

The Firenze Card (€85) covers many of these museums (Galileo, Novecento, Brancacci, Innocenti, Ferragamo, Orsanmichele, Bardini and more). It does not cover the Opera del Duomo Museum, which needs an Opera pass. The GAMB combined tickets cover Orsanmichele but not Galileo. More on the Florence Pass page. Casa Buonarroti and Museo Horne offer reciprocal discounts with Santa Croce, and Galileo gives Santa Croce ticket holders a discount (€10). Orsanmichele belongs to the same GAMB group as the Bargello, so consider a combined ticket if you are visiting several of its museums.

Ready-made itineraries beyond the big three

Science morning: Galileo at 9:30 → lunch → a free afternoon or Palazzo Strozzi. Families near the Accademia: David → Pinocchio or Leonardo Interactive → gelato. Oltrarno frescoes: the Brancacci Chapel (booked) → the outside of Santo Spirito → sunset at Piazzale Michelangelo. Fashion and the centre: Ferragamo → Via de’ Tornabuoni → Palazzo Strozzi if an exhibition is on.

Families: Leonardo Interactive (Via dei Servi, from €8.30 online), Pinocchio (entry every 40 minutes, €14) and HZERO (closed Monday–Tuesday) are the three clear options — but not all on the same day. Under 18s go free at many state and civic museums, so use that at the Bargello and Accademia and pay only for the hands-on experience.

When it rains or you want to avoid queues: Galileo, Ferragamo, Pinocchio, HZERO, Novecento, the Innocenti and the Opera del Duomo Museum (with a pass) are all indoors; avoid the Forte di Belvedere and the Bardini garden. Orsanmichele works too, and the Brancacci Chapel if you have booked. On a Saturday, if you hate queues, try Ferragamo or the Innocenti; for sculpture without the Accademia crowds, the Opera del Duomo Museum or the Bargello. Note that San Marco closes at 13:50, so it is no use as an afternoon fallback.

Budget: for two adults, Galileo costs €28, Orsanmichele €20 and Ferragamo €20 (or nothing for under 18s and over 65s). Add one hands-on family museum (€14–28) and you still spend less than on the Uffizi and Accademia. The €85 Firenze Card only pays off if you combine many of these museums with the major ones within 72 hours.

For the larger museums, see the dedicated pages: Bargello, San Marco, Leonardo, Strozzi, Santa Croce.

• Confusing the two Leonardo museums (66/R and Castellaccio).
• Going to Via dei Servi 12 for the Museo de’ Medici (it has moved).

• Expecting free first-Sunday entry at Galileo, the Innocenti or other private venues.
