Duomo di Milano
Also known as the Metropolitan Cathedral Basilica of the Nativity of Saint Mary, the Duomo is the undisputed symbol of Milan. As one of the largest and most breathtaking Gothic churches in Italy and the world, it stands as a masterpiece of Italian art and architecture. Whether you are admiring its intricate marble facade or exploring its vast interior, the Milan Cathedral is a must-see landmark that captures the heart of every visitor in the city center.

Duomo Rooftops
The highlight of your experience begins with a comfortable elevator ride, taking you directly to the rooftop of Italy's largest cathedral. Once at the top, you will be immersed in a forest of Candoglia marble: you will walk along the external walkways, surrounded by 135 intricately carved spires, hundreds of gargoyles in the shape of fantastic animals, and more than 3,000 statues.
Led by our expert guide, you will discover the centuries-old history of this "eternal construction site" and get a close-up view of the famous Madonnina, the golden statue and symbol of Milan that watches over the city.
But the spectacle doesn't end there. From the Terraces, you will enjoy a breathtaking 360° panoramic view of the Milan skyline, stretching from the modern districts of Porta Nuova and CityLife to historic landmarks and—on clear days—as far as the Alpine arc. It is the perfect moment to take unforgettable photographs and admire the city from a unique and privileged perspective.

Castello Sforzesco
Discover the Sforza Castle (Castello Sforzesco) in Milan, one of Europe's largest and most impressive fortified complexes, built in the 15th century by Francesco Sforza. This iconic landmark has undergone centuries of history and transformation, including expert restorations by the renowned Luca Beltrami.
Today, the Castle is an essential stop for art lovers: it houses numerous museums and priceless treasures, most notably the famous Pietà Rondanini by Michelangelo—the final, unfinished masterpiece of the Renaissance genius.
