Uffizi vs Accademia Gallery

Florence's essential pair: Renaissance painting at the Uffizi versus Michelangelo's David at the Accademia.

Choose Uffizi Gallery if…

Choose the Uffizi for Botticelli Birth of Venus, Leonardo, and Raphael — book months ahead.

Choose Galleria dell'Accademia if…

Choose the Accademia primarily for David; smaller collection, shorter visit.

Visiting both

Schedule Accademia first (shorter), Uffizi after lunch; both require advance tickets in peak season.
