Is it free to enter the Duomo in Florence?

The exterior of the Duomo is free to view and photograph. However, entry to the Cathedral interior, the Brunelleschi Dome, the Baptistery of San Giovanni, and Giotto's Campanile all require a paid ticket.

What is included in the Florence Cathedral (Duomo) ticket?

The standard Duomo ticket covers the Cathedral interior, the Baptistery of San Giovanni, the Crypt of Santa Reparata, and the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo. Dome and Campanile access require separate timed entry tickets due to the limited capacity of the climb.

How long does it take to visit the Florence Duomo?

The Cathedral interior alone takes 30–45 minutes. If you include the Baptistery and the Crypt of Santa Reparata, allow 1.5–2 hours. Climbing the Dome (463 steps, 85m) adds another 45–60 minutes including the wait for your timed slot.

Is it worth climbing the Duomo dome in Florence?

Absolutely — the view from the top of Brunelleschi's Dome is one of the most spectacular in all of Italy. You see Florence's terracotta rooftops, the Arno, surrounding hills, and the entire historic centre. The climb itself is also extraordinary — you pass through the interior of Vasari's Last Judgement fresco.
