More than 500 years ago, Leonardo da Vinci designed flying machines, robots, submarines, an underwater breathing device, a suspension bridge and many other inventions.
The Leonardo da Vinci Museum in Florence houses more than 50 of these machines, which are built based on in-depth studies of the drawings in Leonardo's notebooks.
Visitors can operate and even build some of the most interesting inventions, such as the famous polyhedron and the self-supporting dome, during innovative workshops.
Explore the Museum and discover how many of Leonardo's ideas are now a reality, appreciate the details in high-quality reproductions of his most famous paintings and enjoy total immersion in the world of the genius through virtual reality.
