The Association of “Friends of the Pitti Palace”
was founded in 1996, a non-profit organisation, with the aim of stimulating
a better knowledge and appreciation of the Palace and the Boboli Gardens
and of their numerous treasures. The activities organised for members
include visits to the collections and temporary exhibitions, lectures
and concerts, besides day-trips to places or exhibitions related to
the culture and history of the families who resided here.
Every year the Association restores one or more objects belonging
to the collections.
Groups of volunteers run the office and the Library and another group
has recently begun assisting the gardeners on the maintenance of the
citrus, rose and other collections of the Boboli Gardens.
Office : Palazzo Pitti, Andito degli Angiolini (mezzanine
off the main staircase between the Palatine Gallery on the first floor
the Gallery of Modern Art on the second floors) open on Tuesdays, 10 –13.
