Descrizione
PARTENZA ALLE ORE 10:30
Tra le numerose perle artistiche che impreziosiscono Firenze c’è il Museo del Bargello: un museo nel cuore della città che, anche se meno famoso di altri must fiorentini, rappresenta una rarità da non perdere, in particolare per chi ama la scultura.
L’edificio in stile gotico ha l’aspetto di una vera e propria Fortezza! Progettato dal padre di Arnolfo di Cambio, Lapo Tedesco, è stato costruito a partire dal 1255 per essere il palazzo del Capitano del popolo, fino a diventare nella seconda metà del ‘500 il Palazzo del Bargello, ovvero del capo della polizia, e quindi anche la sede delle carceri cittadine.
Al centro del suo cortile c’è oggi un pozzo al cui posto, fino all’abolizione della pena di morte attuata da Pietro Leopoldo Asburgo-Lorena a fine 700, c’era il capestro con cui si procedeva alle esecuzioni. Solo nel 1865, in occasione del sesto centenario dalla nascita di Dante Alighieri è stato trasformato nell’attuale museo: il museo per antonomasia della scultura a Firenze.
A pianterreno spicca la sala dedicata a Michelangelo, al cui interno si trovano ben quattro sculture in marmo del genio del Rinascimento: il Bacco, il Tondo Pitti, il David/Apollo ed il Bruto.
Nella medesima sala si possono ammirare anche il busto di Costanza Bonarelli del Bernini insieme ad altre opere dei maggiori scultori dello stile manierista. Salendo al primo piano per un suggestivo scalone si incontra il verone e la sala Donatello con ben sette opere del grande maestro del Rinascimento, tra cui emergono l’Attis/Amore in bronzo, il Marzocco in pietra serena, il celeberrimo Sangiorgio in marmo e l’efebico David bronzeo, che rappresenta la prima scultura nuda a tutto tondo dall’età classica. Degna di nota è pure la Cappella della Maddalena dove, sotto l’intonaco dell’ex prigione, sono stati rinvenuti gli affreschi originali di Giotto tra cui si può riconoscere facilmente il celebre profilo del suo amico Dante Alighieri.
Al secondo piano altre sale con opere d’arte tra cui quella delle Robbiane e la sala del Verrocchio, in cui si staglia il busto marmoreo della Dama col mazzolino, commissionata all’artista dallo stesso Lorenzo il Magnifico.
Un’ulteriore attrazione è il salone delle Armi in cui è raccolta una collezione di armature, lame e moschetti per lo più di epoca medievale.
Un museo davvero imperdibile, una pietra angolare della scultura rinascimentale nel pieno centro di Firenze che, anche se considerato un museo “minore”, non ha niente da invidiare per storia e contenuti ai suoi più celebri colleghi.

The tour was presented in English and Italian and it was great listening to both renditions even though my Italian skillz are lacking. Maria was super knowledgeable and somehow didn’t lose her breath whilst climbing up and up and up. Also patient with me being the slowest member of the tour.
The hike up is a bit of an adventure with steep steps and confined spaces. There’s even a feature up top that is almost like the cables at half dome in Yosemite . The view of the city from up to made it all worth it.
All in all, great experience!read less
