3 hour tour (except on Monday)

A walking tour to find out where Leonardo da Vinci lived and worked in Milan.

The guided tour starts under Filarete’s Tower at the entrance of Castello Sforzesco (Castle). Here the Sforza family invited Leonardo da Vinci to Milan: we visit outer and inner courtyards. We walk to Santa Maria delle Grazie Church, a Unesco World Heritage Site, an example of the Lombard Gothic and Renaissance times: Donato Bramante built the marvellous apse and Leonardo da Vinci painted the “Last Supper” in the refectory of the old monastery and we visit inside if there are no holy services.

• N.B.  The visit of the museum Cenacolo Vinciano-the Last Supper is NOT included in this tour. 

  

We continue our tour with the visit of the Science and Technology Museum Leonardo da Vinci (tickets* can be bought there). The Museum’s collection of historic Leonardesque models was created to celebrate the fifth centennial of Leonardo’s birth. A group of experts was nominated to study Leonardo da Vinci’s manuscripts in order to create the models . The Leonardo Gallery was renewed in 2019, where the exhibition of the models is enriched by a series of drawings from his numerous fields of interest, is completed with an exhibition that examines more closely his Milanese years.

We end the tour with a glance at a military submarine and the pavilion that shows one hundred years of rail transport evolution.
