  • The museum has a large collection of excellent art works. The day I visited it was not crowded which was excellent for viewing the art. Nicely laid out floor plan making it easy to view the pieces...

  • Among the best museums in Milan. A lots of ancient stuffs and some times you can smell the ancientness’s. The picture is great. Mostly about the Christianity related. The price is comparatively acceptable.
  • It was the only peaceful place in the hectic Milan. The school of Athens is a grand painting on a grand scale. And the sketches of Leonardo da Vinci in the library were impressed, too. I took the stroller, and they treated us kindly, so I enjoyed the viewing(On the second floor, strollers could not go, so I only visited the viewing area) It was 11.5 euros including tax and I think it's well worth the visit.
