FLORENCE CATHEDRAL TICKETS: WHERE TO BUY THEM
Entrance to the Florence Cathedral is free but the queue at the entrance is long and there is no time of year or a particular time of the day when you can avoid it.
Access is also possible thanks to the single ticket that offers entry to all the monuments of the Duomo: Baptistery, crypt, Giotto’s Bell Tower, Brunelleschi’s Dome and Museum.
The single ticket is valid for 72 hours from the first use and offers a single access to each monument.
Tickets for the Duomo of Florence and all other connected monuments can be purchased in 3 ways:
1 – at the ticket office of the museum of the Duomo of Florence, which is located behind the Duomo, but the line for the purchase can be long.
2 – booking a guided tour, which will allow you to discover not only the Duomo of Florence but also the Baptistery and the Museo dell’Opera del Duomo –> Florence Duomo Guided.
3 – booking Brunelleschi’s Dome Tickets.
The ticket gives access to the Dome and does not provide priority entrance to the Duomo, but offers the advantage of seeing the interior of the Duomo and its frescoes from a different point of view.
Check now the availability of tickets to see the Dome.

VISITING FLORENCE
The frescoes of the Dome of Florence Cathedral, visible only if you enter the Duomo, are one of the must-see masterpieces, but there are many other works of art in Florence that you can’t miss. From Botticelli to Michelangelo, Masaccio to Caravaggio, there are many treasures to see.
If you don’t know where to start, I suggest you read the post where I made a list of the museums in Florence that you should see, you could start with one of them.
Florence is a treasure trove of art treasures to discover. Some of these treasures and places are not included in the normal tourist circuits, so they are almost unknown.
Have you ever heard of, for example, the secret view of Florence Cathedral?
This is a place where you can enjoy the best view of the Duomo, the dome and the bell tower. To find out more, read the post I dedicated to Secret Florence.
Penso a tutti gli sforzi e il denaro che l’essere umano sta sperperando per gradi tecnologie e super grattacieli da far sempre più alti, quando invece basterebbe far nascere nuove città sull’impronta Rinascimentale come Firenze.
Si creerebbe un’indotto spaventoso, avviando un processo di vera innovazione urbanistica, più a dimensione uomo, visto che vengono da ogni parte della terra per visitarle queste città.
Fra l’altro con gli strumenti che abbiamo a disposizione oggi sarebbe tutto plausibilissimo….
La ricerca ossessiva al nuovo ci sta solo portando indietro…
Ma poi cosa vuoi fare più di nuovo dopo i Dadaisti…
Concordo al 100% ma d’altronde basta vivere in un qualsiasi borgo italiano per rivivere subito una dimensione più umana. Sull’indotto io credo che sia già spaventoso. Ci sono intere categorie che vivono solo di turismo, di quel turismo che soffoca alcune città della nostra Penisola.
mi riferisco alle informazioni che riguardano biglietti e orari.
I fiorentini pagano l’ingresso al duomo”? Se si, sapere da dove entrare.
l’Orario per la visita al museo dell’opera del duomo non è sufficientemente espresso, si puo sapere
fino a che ora è aperto?
L’ingresso al Duomo è gratuito per tutti, come ho scritto nel post. Il problema sono le file e ora le limitazioni dell’ingresso a causa del Covid-19.
Oggi, ad esempio, la Cattedrale è chiusa al pubblico come anche il Battistero, la Cupola, il Campanile e il Museo.
Bisogna verificare sul sito ufficiale per capire quando sono aperti e in quali fasce orarie.
Finché ci sarà l’emergenza Covid-19 la situazione resta in evoluzione e ben lontana dalla normalità.
