The mapped public approach is at Viale delle Piagge 2, 56124, Pisa.

Entry notes

Full €5; reduced €2 ages 6-12/FAI; family €10; listed university and accessibility categories and under-sixes free. The museum is closed during August 2026, opens only Friday 4 and 11 September from 09:00–14:00, and resumes Monday/Tuesday/Friday opening on 21 September.

Best time to visit

Use the first practical weekday opening period for quieter rooms and the largest buffer before last admission. Recheck seasonal hours and temporary closures on the day.

Crowd tips

Arrive early for high-demand landmarks and timed entry. In smaller museums, avoid school-group arrival periods and use a different room first if a tour enters with you.
