The Museum has a remarkable collection
of sculpture and works of art. It
occupies an impressive building built
for the Capitano del Popolo in the
mid-13th century, which later became the
seat of the Podestà and Council of
Justice.
Since 1865 the palazzo houses the
National Museum, bringing together many
important Renaissance sculptures,
including masterpieces by Donatello,
Luca della Robbia, Verrocchio,
Michelangelo and Cellini. The museum was
subsequently enriched with splendid
collections of bronzes, majolica, waxes,
enamels, medals, seals, ivories, amber,
tapestries, furniture and textiles from
the Medici collections and those of
private donors.
