The Milan Cathedral is a Gothic masterpiece with rich decorations and unbelievable details that took nearly 600 years to complete.

Marvel at the 52 pillars carved in dark stone, the marble floor, stained-glass windows and numerous monuments and artworks, such as the famous Saint Bartholomew Flayed.
