Masters of Renaissance - discover Michelangelo and Leonardo in Milan
Description
This walking tour invites you to explore the heart of Renaissance Milan, following in the footsteps of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. As you stroll through some of the city’s most iconic landmarks, you’ll uncover the artistic legacy of these two masters whose works continue to shape the world of art.
One of the highlights of the tour is the Convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie, a UNESCO World Heritage site that houses Leonardo’s legendary masterpiece, The Last Supper. This extraordinary fresco captures the moment of revelation with unmatched depth, perspective, and emotion.
You’ll then continue to the Sforza Castle (Castello Sforzesco), the grand fortress of Milan’s powerful Sforza family. Today, the castle hosts several museums and priceless artworks — including Michelangelo’s Pietà Rondanini, his final, deeply moving sculpture and spiritual testament.
Your Renaissance journey concludes at San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore, known as the “Sistine Chapel of Milan.” Hidden behind its modest façade lies a breathtaking cycle of frescoes that illuminate the grace and beauty of Milan’s artistic golden age.
