Milan's Art & Leonardo

Milan's cultural landscape spans from Renaissance masterpieces to modern innovations. The Pinacoteca di Brera and Pinacoteca Ambrosiana house essential works by Italian masters, while the Museo del Novecento focuses on 20th-century movements. Leonardo da Vinci’s legacy is central to this collection, anchored by 'The Last Supper' at Santa Maria delle Grazie, the interactive engineering exhibits of Leonardo3, and the monumental bronze sculpture of Leonardo's Horse. The Sforza Castle further enriches the list with its dedicated Pinacoteca and Museum of Ancient Art, showcasing centuries of Lombard history.
