Description

Embark on a tour led by a licensed guide to explore the Duomo, one of Milan's most iconic landmarks. Be captivated by the gold-plated statue of the Madonnina (affectionately named by the Milanese) gracing the pinnacle of the Cathedral and serving as the true symbol of the city. Learn how, as the fourth largest Cathedral in Europe, the Duomo stands as an ongoing masterpiece, with construction commencing in 1386 and concluding in 1965 – though some may argue it's not truly finished, as the addition of a bell tower is awaited. While strolling through the naves, delve not only into the church's history but also into the rich tapestry of Milan and Italy itself. From the artistic and architectural elements to the myriad statues and stained-glass windows, each detail unfolds a chapter in the region's cultural narrative. Uncover anecdotes and mysteries of this Gothic structure. To make the most of your time in the city, add an optional hop-on hop-off bus ticket valid for 2 days and explore other major sights from panoramic buses.
