Off the Beaten Path in Italy | Step into the Renaissance.

Galleria Nazionale delle Marche Urbino is the hometown of Raphael. The well-preserved architecture and cultural relics make it seem as if you are walking on the same stone road as the artist. The gallery houses a large number of sculptures, paintings, ceramics, mural fragments, wood carvings, and tapestries from the 14th to 18th centuries. The works of representative artists such as Raphael, Titian, and Piero della Francesca are on display. The experience of appreciation and learning is no less than that of famous galleries such as the Uffizi Gallery and the National Gallery. Urbino is not yet connected by train, so you need to take a bus or drive there. Therefore, it takes a lot of time to make an art pilgrimage. But if you want to avoid the crowds and immerse yourself in the golden age of Italian classical art, this may be the best choice. Piazza Rinascimento 13, 61029, Urbino (PU) Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday, 8:15-19:15 -
