Milan Duomo Terraces Tour

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

Description

Visiting the Duomo's terraces is a key attraction in Milan. At the specified time, we will meet at Piazza del Duomo to begin the tour. We will explain the Milan Cathedral façade, an iconic site in Lombardy. Then, we will take the lift to the top, bypassing the 200-step climb.

You will enjoy panoramic views from the terraces and observe the many sculptures, including 3,400 statues, 150 gargoyles, and 96 giants. The ornate spires, about 17 meters (55 feet) tall from the 18th century, will also be highlighted. We will admire the statue of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary into Heaven, known as the Madonnina, the city's protector.

From the terraces, key buildings and monuments visible include the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, San Siro Stadium, and Castello Sforzesco. After an hour of guided sightseeing, the tour concludes at the starting point.
