Reviews of Calcio Museum
Jana Berte
Tiny but incredible: historic costumes, old balls, brutal match videos, and the epic story of Calcio Fiorentino. Super enthusiastic staff, English info, right by the stadium. Best 30-minute adrenaline kick in Florence - a must for any sports or history lover!
Tom Leonard
Interesting history of the National team well presented. Smaller museum that doesn’t take too long but it showcases the team’s history from the beginning. English translation on all displays.
Carlo V
Fantastic Gem outside of the city. Definitely worth the visit, fantastic staff (Grazie Giovanni) and you never know who you can bump into. Grazie Leonardo!
