About
The centerpiece of Milan, the Duomo is one of Europe’s greatest architectural and cultural landmarks. As Italy’s largest church and one of the largest in the world, it took over 600 years to build. Today, the Duomo has a capacity of 40,000 people and is home to the world’s second-largest organ. Admire the wide selection of religious art on display inside, or marvel at the 3000 statues that line its Gothic exterior. Be sure to join one of the available Duomo tours, which include art tours and even rooftop tours, where you might be able to see as far as the Italian Alps. – Tripadvisor

The area
Address
Neighborhood: Centro Storico
The pulsating core of Milan is in Centro. Duomo Square is enclosed by the gothic cathedral, the historic icon of Milan. However, shopping is what draws most crowds to this area. The classy and versatile Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II with luxury boutiques and high quality restaurants will turn any shopping or lunch expedition into a royal experience. Head to the rooftop of the flagship La Rinascente to enjoy the view of the animated square with a panorama of the Duomo. The Corso Vittorio Emanuele II is the street for high-end shopping. Brands of all kinds and street artists attract the attention of all visitors; while at Via Santa Radegonda 16, Luini Panzerotti is a much appreciated street food shop providing unimaginable culinary experiences. If shopping takes its toll on you, consider visiting Castello Sforzesco, a 15th century castle housing several museums. Those looking to relax can go to Parco Sempione, where nature provides respite from the energy of this dynamic and international city.

Amazing architecture
Jul 2022 • Couples
Well worth a visit. Pay attention to the ticket you buy as some let you access the museum in the crypt as well. The rooftop is amazing with beautiful views across the square and amazing views of the stone masonry.

Beautiful dome and architecture
May 2023 • Friends
AN amazing place. The architecture of the dome is very beautiful. It is always crowded and a big line to wait in line to enter the dome.

Terrible
May 2023 • Family
If I had known I had to climb 3 flights of open air stairs after the elevator with I having no hand rail I would not have done this. The sloping roof with nothing to hold onto at the top of the stairs was almost too much for a person afraid of heights.

Always stunning
Jun 2023 • Couples
Buy your tickets online to avoid the ticket office queue.

The Duomo is well worth seeing for the scale and particularly the lead light windows.

You can enter without charge but only to a small area set aside for prayers.

We did a tour of the Duomo and Rooftop Terraces. The views were amazing. The cathedral is fabulous to look at inside and out. The tour guide was very informative.

Once in a Lifetime tour of this Magnificent Structure!
Jun 2023 • Couples
Once in a lifetime opportunity to tour this truly amazing church, so ancient and beautiful. Beware there are over 200 steps coming down if you decide to go up to rooftop which really should not be missed. Since my husband has neuropathy in his feet our tour guide was able to bring us down by the elevator that brings you up. But if not for her we would not have been able to go up under the circumstances. My friend walked down and he said it was winding and confining stairway coming down so be prepared. Magnificent architecture and views from top, historic stained glass, sculptures, etc. etc, not to be missed.

Details everywhere
May 2023
We were not able to visit inside due to a concert the evening we were there- but the visit of the roof and terraces was amazing in itself. You cannot be amazed and feel that something has been lost in our construction practices over time. There is beauty everywhere you look- and really take time to look at all the small details.

Get Your Guide Tour was brilliant
May 2023 • Couples
We booked a skip-the-line tour with Get Your Guide and it was fabulous. We have used GYG many times before and we've never been let down. Really good value and great local guides. Skipping the lines made the visit so pleasurable as it was a busy, hot May day. But it was worth it and the guide was fabulous. Going up the roof was particularly amazing although the queues to get down were a little tiresome. Stunning cathedral and great stories that makes it worth booking a guided tour.

Of soaring heights and tiny stairwells
May 2023 • Family
Do yourself a favor and take the lift to the terraces. If you are afraid of heights or claustrophic (you will pass through some tight stairwells) don't do it alone. I am both, afraid of heights and claustrophobic. I went with family and did fine.

It really is an experience not to miss. The attached museum is amazing too.
