The Milan Cathedral, officially Cattedrale Metropolitana della Natività della Beata Vergine Maria, is the undisputed symbol of Milan and the largest church in Italy. Built in Candoglia marble in a unique Gothic style that blends Northern European and Lombard influences, it houses over 3,400 statues and the famous golden Madonnina on the highest spire.

Piazza del Duomo, Milan

Highlight • Historical Site

Large, busy square directly in front of the Milan Cathedral. You should definitely watch your bags here though...

The Cathedral Square has existed since the 14th century. However, it was much smaller. Neighbouring buildings were gradually demolished and it finally took on its current appearance at the end of the 19th century, when the adjacent Galleria was built.

Rear View of Milan Cathedral (Duomo di Milano)

Highlight • Religious Site

You can spend hours wandering around Milan Cathedral, constantly seeing new figures and details in the stained-glass windows. If you want to see the cathedral from the inside, you should definitely book Fast Track tickets in advance, otherwise you'll end up standing in the sun for hours.

Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II

Highlight • Monument

Right next to the Duomo of Milan stands one of the most popular places in the city, the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, a covered passage between the Duomo and the Teatro alla Scala, designed by the architect Giuseppe Mengoni and inaugurated in the 1860s.

This arcaded street which serves as a showcase and a walk to have an aperitif or dine after the Opera is the oldest shopping center in Italy, decorated with mosaics, caryatids, decorations that surround windows and balconies. Inside there are the shops of the most luxurious brands, but also historic restaurants and starred chefs.

In the center of the Gallery, on the mosaic floor, a bull is represented. There is a superstitious rite, which consists of turning the bull's testicles three times with the heel of the right foot to guarantee fertility or a return to Milan, or good luck for the new year.

Milan...what can I say: Simply a great city, although we haven't seen everything yet.
But as is often the case, where we are supposed to have gained altitude remains a Komoot secret 🙈
