Full description

Museo Novecento focuses on Italian art of the twentieth century, presented in a clean, minimalist interior that suits its modern collection. Visitors report that programming can lean heavily on temporary exhibitions, with recent shows including a Baselitz display described as interesting and well explained.

Around an hour covers the galleries comfortably, and the budget-friendly entry makes it an easy add-on to a Florence day.
