Museo Galileo
City Center, Florence & Countryside
"A must-see for all science lovers, I love how the museum reminds us that Florence wasn’t just the cradle of the Renaissance, but also one of the major contributors to setting the foundations of modern scientific methodology."
The Renaissance was not just a turning point for art. Florence also made important contributions to science and technology during this time period. With instruments, artifacts, and memorabilia, this museum shows how the Medicis and the Grand Dukes of Lorraine helped promote scientific study. Galileo is the focus, but you'll also learn about other scientists of the time, including Leonardo da Vinci. Tickets cost €14 online.
