Palatina Gallery Florence :: tickets online with WeekendaFirenze

The Palatina Gallery of Florence takes its name from the fact that it is located in the "palace" of the reigning family and was opened to the public by the House of Lorraine in 1828. Even today it still preserves the typical layout of a private collection, with a sumptuous combination of lavish interior decoration and the original rich picture frames. The main feature of the Palatina is the art gallery which was superbly decorated with frescoes by Pietro da Cortina, Ciro Ferri and other 19th Century artists. Still magnificently furnished, the Palatina Gallery houses groups of works by the Italian, Spanish and Flemmish schools.
