Description
Discover the real Brera: Art, Enlightenment, and Bohemian Stories
Discover Brera not only as a museum, but also as the beating heart of Milan's cultural history. This exclusive tour for a maximum of 4 people takes you through the fascinating eras of a neighborhood that stands for knowledge, innovation and art like no other.
The center of the Enlightenment
Your experience begins in the impressive inner courtyard of the Brera complex. Learn how this place was transformed into a central knowledge and research center under Maria Teresa of Austria in the spirit of the Enlightenment. Immediately afterwards, you can relax in one of the most beautiful green oases in the city: the historic Botanical Garden (Orto Botanico), a place of tranquility and botanical research in the heart of Milan.
Masterpieces of Italian Art
At the Pinacoteca di Brera, you will experience a masterfully guided tour of one of the most important painting galleries in the world. Follow the fascinating evolution of Italian painting and compare the different regional schools – from Veneto to Lombardy to central Italy. Admire world-famous masterpieces by artists such as Bellini, Mantegna, the successors of Leonardo, Caravaggio, Raffaello, Piero della Francesca, Tiepolo, and Hayez. We will also look at the forerunners of painting in the Age of Enlightenment.
Secrets and stories of a legendary neighborhood
After the museum visit, we will stroll through the picturesque streets of Brera. The neighborhood has a fascinating history full of hidden facets: from the traces of antiquity to its transformation into Milan's unconventional artists' quarter.
Wrap-up in a historic artists' bar
Finally, we end the day in a traditional, historic restaurant where figures such as Ernest Hemingway and Allen Ginsberg have already sat. Enjoy a genuine Milanese aperitif (drink and snacks included) and immerse yourself in the timeless bohemian atmosphere that makes Brera so unique to this day.
