Opera del Duomo Museum
MuseumSienaAbout 1.3 hours
The cathedral's own museum, holding Duccio's Maestà — removed from the high altar and now shown alone, which is how it should be seen. The climb up the unfinished nave wall at the end gives the best rooftop view in the city and comes as a surprise to most visitors.
