One of Italy's largest cathedrals, this Gothic masterpiece took nearly 600 years to complete, with a facade of spires, pinnacles, and statues. Don't miss the rooftop views over Milan to the Alps.
“Standing proudly on the piazza del Duomo, the third largest church in Christendom (outdone only by St Peter's in Rome and Seville's cathedral), the Duomo is truly a joy to behold.”

"A mesmerizing assemblage of spikes and spires, mosaics and marble statuary—and that’s just the facade. The rest of the bulky-yet-elegant church is banded in black and white stone " Full review
