A few steps from the Ponte Vecchio, in the popular neighbourhood called the Oltrarno, surrounded by some of the most characteristic streets of Florence, it suddenly appears: the Pitti Palace, the former residence of the Grand Dukes of Tuscan.
The Pitti Palace houses important collections of paintings and sculpture, works of art, porcelain, silver and period costumes. There are works by Raphael, Titian, Caravaggio and many others
very importantly this place was purchased by Cosimo I de’ Medici and his wife Eleanor of Toledo as the new Grand Ducal residence in 1550.
Today the Palace is divided into four museums: the Treasury of the Grand Dukes on the ground floor, the Palatine Gallery and the Imperial and Royal Apartments on the first floor, the Gallery of Modern Art and the Museum of Costume and Fashion on the second floor.
