Unfortunately, in 1993, a car exploded near the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, and the Uffizi Gallery was greatly implicated, and a neoclassically decorated room was damaged. I thought the disaster was gone, but in early August 2007, Florence was hit by another heavy rainstorm, and the ceiling of the Uffizi Gallery was flooded due to a leak, and fortunately, visitors were evacuated and no one was injured.
