Description

For art enthusiasts and history lovers, the Brancacci Chapel in Santa Maria del Carmine is a must-visit destination. This charming, atmospheric space houses some of the finest Renaissance frescoes created by the legendary Masaccio and Masolino.

Join an informative guided tour in English to appreciate the chapel's vivid colors and intricate artistry.

Though the Brancacci Chapel has a limited capacity (only six visitors per day), this ticket offers skip-the-line entry and the chance to explore the frescoes up close with an expert guide.

Commissioned in 1424 by a wealthy Florentine merchant, the frescoes depict scenes from the life of St. Peter. The vibrant hues remain stunningly preserved, thanks to the innovative techniques of Masolino, Masaccio, and Filippino Lippi.

Miraculously, the Brancacci Chapel survived the devastating fire of 1771, which destroyed the rest of the church in just a few hours. Don’t miss the chance to witness this masterpiece of early Renaissance art in person – a true historical gem.
