Located after the entrances under the Eastern colonnade of the courtyard; storage is free. Backpacks, bags, suitcases of any size, trolleys, large umbrellas and glass bottles must be deposited here before entry.
Anything over the size limit has to be stored. On-site storage can fill up at peak times, so a nearby luggage storage is a useful backup.
Find luggage storage in Florence →"Allowed inside" vs "storage available"
Allowed inside means you can carry the item with you through the galleries or the site. Storage available means it isn't allowed with you, but you can leave it in a locker or cloakroom and collect it on the way out. A venue can offer storage and still refuse oversized suitcases entirely — so a large suitcase may be neither allowed inside nor accepted for storage. When in doubt, travel light or store luggage off-site before you arrive.
Practical tips
- Check your bag against the published rule before you go.
- The free cloakroom can fill up at busy times — have a backup plan.
- Rules and security checks change — always confirm on the official site before your visit.
