Firenze Musei is a network of twenty state museums in Florence  housing works of art from most of the collections of the Signori who ruled Florence (the Medici and the Lorraine families) as well as some works originally belonging to ecclesiastical bodies that fell into the hands of the State as a result of the 19th-century suppression of religious bodies.

Firenze Musei owns and displays around three hundred thousand works of art and exhibits dating from prehistory to the 20th century, although the jewels of the collections belong to the Florentine Renaissance, possibly the most dazzling artistic period of Western culture.
Every year over four million visitors from all over the world come to visit these masterpieces of architecture, sculpture, painting, minor arts and crafts.

The aim of Firenze Musei is to promote Florence's artistic heritage, especially with regard to its lesser known aspects, and to improve the quality of access by both Italian and foreign visitors. Better quality is guaranteed by research into and restoration of important works and the enlargement of exhibition rooms, but also by offering more efficient services so that visitors to the museums belonging to the group can enjoy a more peaceful, satisfying visit, rich in emotions.
