Temporary monitoring in the Basilica

The central nave of the basilica is subject to temporary monitoring that may create a degree of noise. The possibility of viewing masterpieces of art and monuments remains unchanged; the Chancel Chapel and the Bardi Altarpiece will be visible from a distance.

Restoration works in the Monumental Complex

Please be informed that starting from August 27, restoration works will be carried out in various areas of the Monument Complex. All areas will remain open to visitors, but the visitor route may be subject to temporary changes. Additionally, during certain times of the day, the construction work may cause noise disturbances.

Bardi Chapel under restoration

We inform visitors that the Bardi chapel is now closed for restoration. The Giotto frescoes with the Stories of Saint Francis will not be visible for the duration of the restoration period.

Handling of works of art

Henry Moore's Warrior with Shield (1972), after a period of maintenance, is currently located in Palazzo Vecchio, in the Terrazza di Saturno, where the sculptor himself desired it.
