Just for the David
I have to say, I was dissapointed by this museum. I went there to see the David, which was worth the trip (even though you can find replicas all over the city, the real thing is a lot better). Also liked a few of MIchelangelo’s later works which were unfinished. It was awesome to see these 3d characters which seemed to almost be pulling themselves out of a 2d world. Really awesome. Besides that though, the museum is very small and didn’t hold my interest. There is some religious art, but I prefer seeing that inside a church. There was a bit on instruments which was ok, but not mind blowing. And a special photo exhibition that didn’t interest me much either. The only other thing I liked seeing were some Russian Icons.
You can stand in line if you want, but if you buy a ticket down the road at one of the other museums, you can get an icecream, sit in the shade and laugh at the people sweating in the queue while you wait for your own timeslot.

Worth visiting!
I lived around the corner
In the winter, there is hardly anyone there when they extend the hours.
My friend and I were the only two people in the whole academy, with the David all to ourselves. It was amazing.
It was raining and dark out, and inside, it was marvelous.

Not worth visiting!
Hay una réplica exacta a pocos metros.
Contemplar el David merece la pena pero hay una réplica exacta a pocos metros, en la entrada del Palacio de la Señoría… y así te ahorras las colas y los euros ;)

A review of this place: learn...
Read all that you can about what you will see before you go. The David is astounding and will make you cry if you let it. The bound slaves are revolutionary. Every bit is worth seeing, and you can appreciate it more if you know even a little.

The first time I went to this place
I’d seen pictures of “David” before, but I never realised how tall the sculpture is in real life!
