Discover Florence
Florence - Firenze - is many things; the heart of Tuscany, a Renaissance jewel, a true city of art. It's home to the Uffizi, one of the oldest museums in the world, and the Accademia, home to one of the most famous statues in the world - David. The incredible Cathedral - Duomo dominates the skyline, with Brunelleschi's fabulous dome - cupola, and Giotto's mighty clock-tower - campanile.

Michelangelo's Secret Room - Medici Chapels
Michelangelo's Secret Room - Medici Chapels
Michelangelo's Secret Room - Medici Chapels
Michelangelo's Secret Room, Medici Chapels - an extremely rare and limited chance to visit this newly unveiled space. Long hidden from the public, we can now offer a chance to appreciate the creative process and exploratory sketches of Michelangelo. This tiny and long forgotten chamber - La Stanza Segreta di Michelangelo - has now been opened to the public for a limited period.
Availability is extremely limited, with only 100 visitors per week, strict time-slots and a maximum of 2 visitors per slot. We'll try to reflect available dates in the calendar, but we can't guarantee that slots will be available until we have confirmed an order.
Maximum of one time-slot per order: If you are attempting to book for more than 2 people, please place separate orders with different time-slots for each order.
Maximum of two visitors per time-slot: Only 2 visitors are allowed at a given time so availability is very hard to guarantee. Ideally select 'Flexible on timing' below. While we cannot guarantee that all slots will be available, this will give you a better chance of visiting the Secret Room.
Watch this spot! If new dates become available we'll add them here, so please bookmark this page if you are interested in future openings.
The location is down a narrow staircase and is not accessible to visitors with disabilities or children under 10.
Children must be accompanied by an adult.
Back to Medici Chapel, Florence
Overview
This hidden room, only brought to light during excavations in 1975 and painstakingly restored, served as a refuge for Michelangelo when he faced a death sentence from Pope Clement for his involvement in the short-lived Republican government. Although the sentence was swiftly revoked, allowing him to resume his work in Florence, this compact space unveils an array of sketches and plans for future masterpieces. Executed in charcoal and chalk, the works often overlap, and provide a rare insight into the artist's evolving techniques.
This ticket also includes your entrance to the Medici Chapels.

6th Jan 2025Our guide was wonderful-very knowledgeable and personable. She told us much about the history that led Michelangelo here and showed us pictures of his works in other places that may have had the idea sparked in this room with his sketches.5 starsCP, United States

30th Jul 2024This experience was such a treat! I knew about it and had been trying for months to get tickets on my own and could not, even with the help of the concierge at our 5-star hotel. I could not believe tickitaly had them! It was perfect! A must-do in Florence!
