Milan Duomo Terraces Tour

Going up to the Duomo's terraces is a must if you're in Milan for the best views of the capital of Lombardy and to uncover the Duomo's secrets.

Description

In Milan, visiting the Duomo's terraces is essential. We will meet at Piazza del Duomo at the indicated time to start the tour.

During the visit, we'll explain the Milan Cathedral façade before taking the lift to the top, avoiding the 200-step climb.

Once at the top, you'll enjoy panoramic views of Milan from the terraces and admire the various sculptures, including 3,400 statues, 150 gargoyles, and 96 giants.

We'll also view the ornate spires, approximately 17 metres high, dating back to the 18th century. We will look up at the statue of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary into Heaven, known as the Madonnina, considered the protector of the city.

From the terraces, important Milanese buildings and monuments can be seen, including the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, San Siro Stadium, and Castello Sforzesco. Bring your camera!

After one hour of guided sightseeing, the tour concludes at the starting point.
