Milan - Tour with guide - Tour 3

Museum of Castello Sforzesco tour, 1-7 pax

CONTENT

The Sforzesco Castle is an awe-inspiring fortress that resolves into a myriad of wide courtyards and residential buildings. In the 15th century, Castello Sforzesco was the residence of the mighty Sforza dukes. The Sforzesco Castle now it is home to some of Milan´s finest museums; even today, we can still enjoy Leonardo da Vinci´s intriguing ´painted garden´ in the Sala delle Asse, Bramante´s elegant Rocchetta Courtyard, reminiscent of the Versailles Palace … and what to think of Michelangelo´s final work, the heartbreaking Rondanini Pieta! Our guide will show you all the facets of this truly exceptional treasure trove of art and culture and will tell you the stories of the people that lived here in centuries past. You will hear about the castle´s mysteries, its history, its legends and secrets. And afterwards, you can linger in the shadow of the marvellous fountain in front of the castle or drink an espresso in one of the small, cosy cafés on the piazza, and savour this unforgettable experience.
