This facility was intended to house the offices (“uffizi” in sixteenth-century Florentine language) of the magistrates of the city; Cosimo I wanted the collections that the Medici family had accumulated to be placed on the piano nobile of the new building. Very soon, this became the place where the works of artists such as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo were collected, but the museum was officially opened to the public in 1765.Today the Uffizi Gallery is one of the top destinations for travelers all over the world and it's especially famous for its incredible collection of Renaissance paintings.
