Top Tips of our Head Concierge, Maurizio

Leonardo's Lock - Via San Marco

At this site, the Martesana canal connected to the Navigli through a system of locks perfected by Leonardo da Vinci. Completed in the late 1400s, the San Marco Lock enabled the transport of goods to Milan, which were taxed at the Ponte delle Gabelle before entering the city.

Pieta’ Rondanini - Castello Sforzesco

The final, unfinished work of Michelangelo Buonarroti, the Rondanini Pietà, on display at the Castello Sforzesco Museum, is the artist’s testament and meditation on death and salvation. In this work the sculptor renounces bodily perfection and heroic beauty, depicting the dead Christ as a symbol of suffering.

Church of San Maurizio al Monastero Maggio

All the walls and ceilings inside the ex-convent San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore were painted by Bernardino Luini, who worked in the church between 1522 and 1529, depicting episodes of the Bible.This triumph of frescoes is considered to be the Milanese Sistine Chapel.

Top Tips of Our Concierge, Paolo

Basilica Di Sant'Ambrogio

Founded in the 4th century, the Basilica is one of the oldest churches in the city and a stunning example of Romanesque architecture. From the narthex, as you look toward the high altar, you'll see a bronze snake perched atop an ancient Roman column, with a bronze cross directly across from it on another column. According to tradition, this snake is believed to be the very one that Moses erected in the desert.

Pinacoteca Ambrosiana

Established in 1618 as Milan's first public museum, the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana is located near Duomo and houses masterpieces by renowned artists. Among its treasures are Leonardo da Vinci’s Portrait of a Musician, Caravaggio’s Basket of Fruit, and Raphael’s Cartoon for the School of Athens. The collection, originally bequeathed by Cardinal Borromeo, continues to inspire visitors with its rich artistic heritage.

Boschi Di Stefano House Museum

This historic Milanese residence, designed by Piero Portaluppi, was once home to Antonio Boschi and Marieda di Stefano.
