Duomo di Milano ve Piazza del Duomo, Milano
Milan, Italy

Milan Cathedral (Duomo)

Six centuries of Gothic marble with rooftop walks over Milan.

Ideal: Ideal for architecture, city views, Gothic buildings, and first-time Milan visitors.

Foundations were laid in 1386, the last stone placed in 1965 — a construction site of roughly six centuries. It carries 3,400 sculptures and 135 spires; the pinkish Candoglia marble still comes from the quarry the Visconti donated to the cathedral and continues to be cut for ongoing repair. You can climb to the roof terrace and walk among spires and buttresses. The gilded Madonnina at the top was placed at 108.5 metres in 1774.

Why go?

  • To see Milan's most iconic building
  • To examine Gothic details and the marble façade up close
  • To view Milan from the roof terrace

Travel tip

Definitely consider the roof terrace; the experience is much better in clear weather.
