About

Renaissance palace that serves as one of Florence's most important venues for international art exhibitions. Known for hosting major temporary exhibitions featuring both classical and contemporary artists.

Palazzo Strozzi stands on Piazza degli Strozzi in the historic heart of Florence, Tuscany. Its name is often shortened to Strozzi Palace, and it is one of the city's Renaissance palaces that now serves a different purpose: it is one of Florence's most important venues for international art exhibitions.

What to expect

The palace is best known for its major temporary exhibitions, which bring together both classical and contemporary artists. Because the programme changes, what you see on one visit may be quite different from the next, so it is worth checking what is on before you go. A visit here suits anyone interested in exhibitions that bring artists from different periods and countries into conversation.

  • A Renaissance building, with the architecture itself part of the experience
  • Temporary shows of classical and contemporary art
  • Exhibitions with an international reach
