Milan Cathedral
The Cathedral of Milan or the Duomo is one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the world and one of the most essential places to visit in Milan.
This Gothic cathedral, which began to be built at the end of the 14th century and took five centuries to complete, stands out for its pink white marble façade and for its terrace with spirals decorated with niches, sculptures and reliefs, and crowned by a statue.
In its imposing interior is the Statue of Bartholomew the Apostle, a huge organ and a marble altar in the Renaissance style, which keeps in the back a Nail of the Cross of Christ, although our favorite place in the cathedral is the terrace , from which you will enjoy incredible panoramic views of the historic center between statues and pinnacles. A good option to avoid the queues at the most visited monument in the city is to book this quick entrance with access to the terrace or this tour with an English guide, which will allow you to better understand the history of the cathedral.
When leaving Piazza del Duomo, we recommend you to visit Piazza Mercanti, a square that recalls its commercial past with elegant medieval buildings such as the Palazzo della Ragione, the Loggia degli Osii, the Palazzo delle Scuole Palatine and the water well of the VXI century. , located in the center.
To better know the history of the city and not miss out on anything interesting, it is advisable to book a coach by 8rental in Milan for a private tour, both include an English guide.
