The Museo dell'Opera del Duomo in Florence houses a world-renowned collection of original artwork and sculpture created for the Florence Cathedral complex, including the Baptistery and Giotto's Campanile.
Located opposite the cathedral's east end, the museum preserves original masterpieces that were removed from the building exteriors for conservation.
Highlights:
- Reconstructed Façade: A grand display recreating the old cathedral façade with original statues placed in their historical positions.
- Artistic Heritage: The museum stands on the historic site of the cathedral works where legendary sculptures were carved.
