The Duomo, symbol of Milan in the world, is one of the largest cathedrals in Italy and Europe. Patrimony of Milanese people and humanity, over the centuries it has been expressing, with its magnificence, the devotion of humanity toward the Divine, involving future generations in an endless commitment. The Milan Cathedral, besides being an artistic monument, is a privileged place of prayer, deeply linked to the memory and teachings of the Bishops who succeeded on St. Ambrose's chair, and to the history of the millions of worshippers who, every year, gather in this place to celebrate the Sacred Mysteries. The Cathedral is the mother Church of the Diocese, having a symbolic role of exemplarity both in the life of the city worship, and in relation with the Diocese activity.

Cinema storico che negli anni si è rinnovato mantenendo degli standard di qualità al di sopra di tante altre sale di milano. Inoltre una particolarità importante sono le poltrone, comodissime e all' avanguardia x tecnologia di audio. Consiglio la visione nella sala Energy per godere del massimo effetto del suono. Location molto accogliente, pulita e meno fredda Delle normali multisale.

I visited this hidden gem in August. As some other people mentioned, there is not much about this place in English and actually the visitors are mainly Italian. I would strongly suggest to go to the bookshop first and buy the small book/leaflet in English. This is what I have done and it helped a lot as the visit are in Italian only (fortunately I can handle Italian). It's better to start the visit with the guided tour of the Palace (Quarto Novo). The frescoes are exceptional. My favorite rooms are the concert/ballroom and dining room. After this guided tour. You have another one the Nymphaeum and the water games guided tour which is amazing. It consists of a series of different spaces with paintings, and extraordinary mosaics made with pebbles. This is just amazing ! There is also a complex water game.... so refreshing in this hot summer days. This place which is not far from Milan should not be missed.
5. Museo Fratelli Cozzi Alfa Romeo
Overall Ratings
5 based on 118 reviews
Fratelli Cozzi Museum stemmed from the passion of Pietro Cozzi for Alfa Romeo cars, after he decided to collect one sample of each model produced by "Casa del Biscione". Beginning with 1950s' designs, it was decided to identify the quintessential models, special series, top-performance engines, and more than 50 exhibits were assembled, including some that are unique worldwide. Nor does the museum lack for original documents, books, drawings, films, signs, trophies, photographs, and objects that, as much as the cars, bear witness to the history of Fratelli Cozzi's strong and enduring partnership with Alfa Romeo. The collection is constantly updated with new models and is an important legacy for 20th-century history of Italian cars, as well as playing a key role in understanding the industrial growth of this outstanding brand, born in Milan in 1910. Pietro Cozzi's passion, handed down over time to his children Roberto and Elisabetta, blossomed into a desire to make the collection accessible to the world of Italian and foreign car enthusiasts, not just Alfisti, and this led to the creation of the Museo Fratelli Cozzi_Alfa Romeo.

Modernity and style! The museum is quite big and interesting (even for someone who is not into cars or Alfa Romeo's).
We went through it quite "rapidly" and it took us 1.5 hours. There's a coffee shop, different floors and the lights + sound made the difference. There's also a 4D cinema open for all guests! Super fun.
I recommend it!

Duck starter was really good. My steak was fantastic and cooked to perfection. The service was superb and the venue is a beautiful building. I've knocked off a star because of the poor selection of digestifs and a very small pudding menu. I'll definitely go back as the quality of the food is so good. The Campari sorbet is worth trying if you're into sorbet.
7. Il Cenacolo

Tickets to view Leonardo Da Vinci's Last Supper go on sale three months in advance and sell out quickly, although it's sometimes possible to buy tickets closer to your visit. If you don't manage to purchase tickets on your own, consider visiting The Last Supper as part of a tour. It's much more expensive, but worth it if you don't want to miss out.

If you’re visiting Milan, then seeing the Last Supper is an absolute must. Personally, I’m not religious but I was truly took back upon seeing the painting and learning about the history.
I’d definitely recommend booking early as tickets get booked up as your time slot is only 15 minutes

For sheer belle époque splendor, this extravagant 19th-century glass-topped, barrel-vaulted tunnel serves as a lively, noisy and colorful shopping mall, teeming with life and inviting you to people-watching from the tables that spill from the Galleria's many bars and restaurants.

The grandeur of the place takes your breath away. The beautiful vaulted ceilings, the lovely tiled floors and of course the endless high end designer shops. A great place to stroll and window shop if you can't afford to go in.

This busy and vibrant city square features the gothic Cathedral, one of the largest in Europe.
Reviewed By holidayaddict51 - Sowerby Bridge
The square is always crowded with people visiting the Cathedral and you get a great sense of the scale of the building from here. Plenty of information boards about the building of the Cathedral around the walls and the Cathedral shop nearby. Some good buskers playing as well- all adds to the atmosphere.

Great historical setting for a range of museums. For me the highlight was Michelangelo's last, unfinished Pieta. Very moving and well presented.
