Overview

Ascend Brunelleschi’s Dome, the crown jewel of Florence Cathedral. Designed by Filippo Brunelleschi, this engineering marvel took 15 years to complete, becoming the largest dome in Europe and surpassing even the Pantheon.

Climb 463 steps for an up-close look at Zuccari and Vasari’s fresco, The Last Judgement, inside the dome. At the summit, enjoy panoramic views of Florence’s most iconic landmarks.

Your 3 - day pass also includes skip-the-line access to the full Florence Duomo Complex : the Baptistery, Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral, the Opera del Duomo Museum, and Giotto’s Bell Tower—each revealing a piece of Florence’s rich Renaissance history.
