I remember as if it was yesterday &#8211; I walked out of the metro station by the Duomo, raised my head and just froze. That huge white building was literally breathtaking. Even now, when I go back there another time, I feel exactly the same &#8211; a mixture of awe and disbelief that something could be so impressive. Each time I discover new details, new perspectives. It&#8217;s worth the drive up to its roof &#8211; the view of the city from the cathedral&#8217;s terrace is amazing, and on sunny days you can even see the snow-capped peaks of the Alps. This is one of those places in Milan that you simply have to see with your own eyes.      <\/p>\n<style>.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-content-wrap{margin-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-xxs, 0.5rem);margin-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-xxs, 0.5rem);padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-xxs, 0.5rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);border-top:2px solid #4d83af;border-right:2px solid #4d83af;border-bottom:2px solid #4d83af;border-left:2px solid #4d83af;border-top-left-radius:5px;border-top-right-radius:5px;border-bottom-right-radius:5px;border-bottom-left-radius:5px;}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-contents-title-wrap{padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;border-top:0px solid transparent;border-right:0px solid transparent;border-bottom:0px solid transparent;border-left:0px solid transparent;}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-contents-title-wrap{color:#222222;}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-contents-title{color:#222222;font-size:16px;font-family:var( --global-body-font-family, inherit );font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;text-transform:uppercase;}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-content-wrap .kb-table-of-content-list{color:#222222;font-size:var(--global-kb-font-size-sm, 0.9rem);line-height:1rem;font-family:Nunito;font-weight:500;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-xxs, 0.5rem);margin-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-content-wrap .kb-table-of-content-list .kb-table-of-contents__entry:hover{color:var(--global-palette3, #1A202C);}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-content-list li{margin-bottom:10px;}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-content-list li .kb-table-of-contents-list-sub{margin-top:10px;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-content-wrap{border-top:2px solid #4d83af;border-right:2px solid #4d83af;border-bottom:2px solid #4d83af;border-left:2px solid #4d83af;}}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-contents-title-wrap{border-top:0px solid transparent;border-right:0px solid transparent;border-bottom:0px solid transparent;border-left:0px solid transparent;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-content-wrap{border-top:2px solid #4d83af;border-right:2px solid #4d83af;border-bottom:2px solid #4d83af;border-left:2px solid #4d83af;}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id3820_6462bf-79 .kb-table-of-contents-title-wrap{border-top:0px solid transparent;border-right:0px solid transparent;border-bottom:0px solid transparent;border-left:0px solid transparent;}}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has--font-size\">Duomo di Milano: the majestic Cathedral of the Birth of St. Mary in Milan <\/h2>\n\n<p><strong>Milan\u2019s main cathedral<\/strong>, known as the <strong>Duomo di Milano<\/strong> or <strong>the Cathedral of the Birth of St. Mary in Milan (Italian: Santa Maria Nascente di Milano), <\/strong>is an iconic symbol of the city. Built of glistening Candogli marble, its construction began in <strong>1386<\/strong> and continued until <strong>1966<\/strong>, a testament to its monumental character and historical significance. This impressive structure, with more than <strong>3,400<\/strong> sculptures and exquisite stained glass windows, is an outstanding example of Gothic architecture in Italy, distinguished by its unique combination of northern influences with elements typical of Lombardy.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has--font-size\">Cathedral facade <\/h2>\n\n<p><strong>The facade of the cathedral<\/strong> in <strong>Piazza del Duomo<\/strong>, with its classical windows and neo-Gothic crown, is a true architectural masterpiece. The interior of this temple, especially the chancel, which was restored in the second half of the 16th century, deserves special attention. Atop the apse vault, which is part of this unique structure, is an extremely valuable relic \u2013 the Holy Nail of the Cross.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Outside, the huge edifice of the cathedral is crowned by a soaring turret, which houses the famous statue of the Virgin Mary (<a href=\"https:\/\/mediolan.pl\/en\/madonnina\/\">Madonnina<\/a>), made of gilded copper, 4 meters high, and dated 1774. For those who want to deepen their knowledge of this remarkable monument, the Museum del Duomo offers a rich exhibition related to the history and art of the cathedral. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has--font-size\">The Terrace of the Duomo Cathedral<\/h2>\n\n<p>Na dach katedry w Mediolanie mo\u017cesz dosta\u0107 si\u0119 na dwa sposoby &#8211; albo wej\u015b\u0107 po schodach (251 stopni), albo wjecha\u0107 wind\u0105.

The elevator is more convenient and will work great for elderly people or families with small children. <\/p>\n\n<p>Once you reach the top, you\u2019ll be greeted by a remarkable panorama that winds between the spires and allows you to approach the famous Madonna, located at 108.50 meters and 4.16 meters high, which has protected the city of Milan since 1774.  <\/p>\n\n<p>The terraces extend over 8,000 square meters and offer close-up views of the spires, pinnacles, arches and numerous statues that adorn the Duomo.<\/p>\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/mediolan.pl\/en\/madonnina\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"3946\">Madonnina<\/a> del Duomo, the church\u2019s highest point, is the patron saint of Milan and, despite ancient traditions, has been surpassed in height by modern buildings such as the Pirelli skyscraper.<\/p>\n\n<p>From the cathedral&#8217;s terraces you can enjoy a great view of all of Milan. On sunny days you can even see the snow-capped peaks of the Alps and the surrounding Po Valley from here. It is decorated with 135 ornate spires and more than 3,400 statues, creating a veritable forest of stone rich in decorative elements carved from Candoglia marble.  <\/p>\n<style>.kb-gallery-type-thumbslider.kb-gallery-id-317_72c552-0e .kt-blocks-carousel-init {margin-bottom:10px;}.kb-gallery-id-317_72c552-0e .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-317_72c552-0e .kb-slide-item .kb-gal-image-radius img{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;;}<\/style><div class=\"kb-gallery-wrap-id-317_72c552-0e alignnone wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-non-static kb-gallery-type-thumbslider kb-gallery-id-317_72c552-0e kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel kt-carousel-container-dotstyle-dark\"><div id=\"kb-slider-317_72c552-0e\" class=\"kt-blocks-carousel-init splide kb-blocks-slider kt-carousel-arrowstyle-whiteondark kt-carousel-dotstyle-dark kb-slider-group-arrow kb-slider-arrow-position-center\" data-columns-xxl=\"5\" data-columns-xl=\"5\" data-columns-md=\"5\" data-columns-sm=\"4\" data-columns-xs=\"4\" data-columns-ss=\"4\" data-slider-anim-speed=\"400\" data-slider-scroll=\"1\" data-slider-arrows=\"true\" data-slider-fade=\"true\" data-slider-dots=\"false\" data-slider-hover-pause=\"false\" data-slider-type=\"thumbnail\" data-slider-nav=\"kb-thumb-slider-317_72c552-0e\"  data-slider-auto=\"\" data-slider-speed=\"7000\" data-slider-gap=\"10px\" data-slider-gap-tablet=\"10px\" data-slider-gap-mobile=\"10px\" data-show-pause-button=\"false\"><div class=\"splide__track\"><ul class=\"splide__list\"><li class=\"kb-slide-item kb-gallery-carousel-item splide__slide\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-land32 kb-has-image-ratio-land32\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mediolan.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/katedra-mediolan-682x1024.jpg\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Corso Vittorio Emanuele, a lively and energetic street in Milan.

It was designed in 1606 by Francesco Maria Richini. The name \u201c<strong>scurolo<\/strong>\u201d comes from the word \u201c<strong>scuroeu<\/strong>\u201d in the Milanese dialect, which means a dimly lit space. This small octagonal room is located just below the chancel of the cathedral, next to the crypt. It was specially completed and decorated for the canonization of Saint Charles Borromeo, which took place on November 1, 1610. This place is truly unique and worth a visit!   <\/p>\n\n<p>It is separated from the main chapel by a classical entrance. Inside is a unique urn made of crystal and silver &#8211; a gift from Spanish King Philip IV, designed by Cerano.The interior is decorated with marble mirrors in the lower part and 19th-century fabrics above. These fabrics were later enhanced with elaborate embroideries of silk and gold and silver threads. The designs allude to Eucharistic symbolism and the Borromeo family.   <\/p>\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d\"]{padding-left:0px;margin-left:0px;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d\"]{display:flex;gap:0.25em;align-items:center;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d\"] .kb-adv-heading-icon svg{width:1em;height:1em;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d\"] .kb-adv-heading-icon{color:#65b0e9;font-size:24px;padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-xxs, 0.5rem);}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d\"]:hover .kb-adv-heading-icon{color:#333333;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style><h3 class=\"kt-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d wp-block-kadence-advancedheading kt-adv-heading-has-icon\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_8f79d7-0d\"><span class=\"kb-svg-icon-wrap kb-adv-heading-icon kb-svg-icon-fas_star kb-adv-heading-icon-side-left\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\"  fill=\"currentColor\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"  aria-hidden=\"true\"><path d=\"M259.3 17.8L194 150.2 47.9 171.5c-26.2 3.8-36.7 36.1-17.7 54.6l105.7 103-25 145.5c-4.5 26.3 23.2 46 46.4 33.7L288 439.6l130.7 68.7c23.2 12.2 50.9-7.4 46.4-33.7l-25-145.5 105.7-103c19-18.5 8.5-50.8-17.7-54.6L382 150.2 316.7 17.8c-11.7-23.6-45.6-23.9-57.4 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"kb-adv-text-inner\">The Sack of Judgment Day<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Inside the cathedral itself, along the right nave, near the entrance, one can find an unusual and mysterious object \u2013 a huge sack made of thick jute material, suspended high from the ceiling.

Napoleon crowned himself here as King of Italy in 1805 and ordered the fa\u00e7ade to be completed.   <\/p>\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_e677d5-75\"]{padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);font-style:normal;border-top:1px solid #65b0e9;border-right:1px solid #65b0e9;border-bottom:1px solid #65b0e9;border-left:1px solid #65b0e9;border-top-left-radius:5px;border-top-right-radius:5px;border-bottom-right-radius:5px;border-bottom-left-radius:5px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_e677d5-75\"]{display:flex;gap:0.25em;align-items:center;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_e677d5-75\"] .kb-adv-heading-icon svg{width:1em;height:1em;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_e677d5-75\"] .kb-adv-heading-icon{color:#4d83af;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_e677d5-75\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_e677d5-75\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_e677d5-75\"]{border-top:1px solid #65b0e9;border-right:1px solid #65b0e9;border-bottom:1px solid #65b0e9;border-left:1px solid #65b0e9;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_e677d5-75\"]{border-top:1px solid #65b0e9;border-right:1px solid #65b0e9;border-bottom:1px solid #65b0e9;border-left:1px solid #65b0e9;}}<\/style><p class=\"kt-adv-heading317_e677d5-75 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading kt-adv-heading-has-icon\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading317_e677d5-75\"><span class=\"kb-svg-icon-wrap kb-adv-heading-icon kb-svg-icon-fe_link kb-adv-heading-icon-side-left\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"  fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"  aria-hidden=\"true\"><path d=\"M10 13a5 5 0 0 0 7.54.54l3-3a5 5 0 0 0-7.07-7.07l-1.72 1.71\"\/><path d=\"M14 11a5 5 0 0 0-7.54-.54l-3 3a5 5 0 0 0 7.07 7.07l1.71-1.71\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"kb-adv-text-inner\">More in the dedicated article: <a href=\"https:\/\/mediolan.pl\/en\/history-of-the-cathedral-in-milan\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"7729\">The history of the cathedral in Milan: how the Duomo was built over 600 years<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQ<\/h2>\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1742411712728\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Is it possible to enter the cathedral in Milan for free?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Entrance to the cathedral in Milan is free for the faithful through a special entrance, which allows visiting the interior without charge.
