Piccolo Teatro Grassi

A Baroque façade and even more elaborate interior means that this small church more than holds its own against the architectural splendors of central Milan.

You can find out about the history of Milan with a stop at Cerchia dei Navigli. Make time to visit the area's stunning cathedral, or simply enjoy its charming cafes.

One of Europe’s first public libraries is home to Leonardo da Vinci’s Codex Atlanticus, which is housed alongside a huge book and art collection.

This masterpiece by Baroque architect Francesco Richini conceals magnificent works of art by notable Italian painters from the 16th and 17th centuries.

See opera, ballet or classical music performed on one of the most famous stages in the world at this theatre and museum.

This beautiful old arcade houses some of the biggest names in fashion, such as Prada and Gucci, alongside traditional restaurants and hole-in-the-wall cafés.
