10 Best Museums in Florence | Condé Nast Traveler
"Once the seat of government in Florence, Palazzo Vecchio is now an art museum—though the experience is more about the building's design and history. The courtyard has a series of stuccoes and frescoes, though you'll see more people snapping pics of the replica of Michelangelo's David . On the first floor is Salone dei Cinquecento (the Hall of the Five Hundred), the largest and most artistically important room on the property, originally decorated by Michelangelo and Leonardo. The second floor once housed the private rooms of the Medici court; today, still sumptuously furnished, it's where you'll find the Donatello’s Judith . And the 311-foot Tower of Palazzo Vecchio was, like the rest of the building, designed by Arnolfo di Cambio—who also built the Duomo." - Bridget Arsenault
