We loved the Cathedral! It was so beautiful inside and out. We just had a rainy day which made the outside experience hard to enjoy the beauty of the view.

We were very please using the Headout app. The Duomo Cathedral was just impressive. The day we went it rained most of the day but didn't spoil our enjoyment of our surroundings.

The ticke5 was very readily available. Very smooth fast track and straight up to the rooftop o& the duomo . The cathedral is spectacular, views all over the city, lots of walking , it gets pretty high. If you have a fear of heights the roof can be daunting.

Discover Italy's largest Church

Skip the long waiting queues and enter Milan Cathedral directly, where you can marvel at its stunning Gothic architecture, adorned with over 3,400 intricately carved statues and 135 soaring spires. Inside the cathedral, take some time to observe its architecture, including the vast nave featuring impressive vaults and columns and the stained glass windows that depict scenes from the Bible, bathing the interior with a kaleidoscope of colors.

Treasures in the Cathedral Complex

Don't miss the St. Charles Crypt, featuring silver foil panels that depict key moments from the life of St. Charles Borromeo, and the Cathedral Museum, which houses a collection of liturgical artifacts, sculptures, and architectural models. Then, make your way to the archaeological area below the cathedral and discover the remnants of ancient buildings. You can also explore the Church of San Gottardo, known for its stunning bell tower.

Reach new heights

Finish your visit by taking the lift to the terraces, where you can enjoy views of Milan’s skyline and the surrounding Alps. Skip the wait and head straight up to get a closer look at the statues on the terraces, including the golden Madonnina atop the main spire.
