Sensational view of the city and details of the cathedral. Despite the elevator, you have to climb steps on the roof and walk behind it. Only suitable for guests who are good walkers. But after the descent you are standing inside the cathedral :-).

This was such a great option. It was too late to do a tour and I didn't want to miss out on the opportunity. It was very easy and simple. The ticket info indicates clearly where you need to go. Honestly I'm so glad I did this instead of the tour. I recommend this 1000%

The entrance is very well organized and the view over the rooftops of Milan is of course unique. However, you should be lucky enough to plan your ascent at a less busy time, otherwise it won't be much fun.

Soak in the best views of Milan

As you make your way to the Milan Cathedral’s stunning terraces, prepare for an unforgettable view of Milan’s iconic skyline. From this vantage point, you can admire the intricate details of the cathedral's 135 spires, the Madonnina statue atop the Tiburio, and sweeping panoramic views of the city. You’ll also be able to spot landmarks like the Sforza Castle and the shimmering skyscrapers of modern Milan. The terraces themselves offer a unique opportunity to walk through a stone forest of Candoglia marble, with every corner revealing a new perspective of this architectural masterpiece.

Choose your path

For those looking for a bit of a challenge, you can climb 250 stairs to reach the terraces and soak in the experience at your own pace. If you prefer an easier route, the lift option will take you up with minimal effort. For the ones on a time crunch, skip-the-line access allows you to bypass the crowds and head straight to the terraces, ensuring a smooth, quick experience with more time to enjoy the breathtaking views.
