Visit the Accademia Gallery and see Michelangelo's *David*, along with 15th-century paintings by Botticelli, Ghirlandaio, and Uccello.
The Accademia opened in the 1780s as a teaching facility for students at the Academy of Fine Arts. Today, it is home to *David*, a 5-m (17-ft) marble sculpture by Michelangelo.
