The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Centro Storico
The pulsating core of Milan is in Centro. Duomo Square is enclosed by the gothic cathedral, the historic icon of Milan. However, shopping is what draws most crowds to this area. The classy and versatile Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II with luxury boutiques and high quality restaurants will turn any shopping or lunch expedition into a royal experience. Head to the rooftop of the flagship La Rinascente to enjoy the view of the animated square with a panorama of the Duomo. The Corso Vittorio Emanuele II is the street for high-end shopping. Brands of all kinds and street artists attract the attention of all visitors; while at Via Santa Radegonda 16, Luini Panzerotti is a much appreciated street food shop providing unimaginable culinary experiences. If shopping takes its toll on you, consider visiting Castello Sforzesco, a 15th century castle housing several museums. Those looking to relax can go to Parco Sempione, where nature provides respite from the energy of this dynamic and international city.

- Demy DelfiCorfu Town, Greece86 contributionsA nice churchYou can enter the church for free and it is a nice church to visit. However, Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper is not inside this church. It is located in another building right next to it and you have to book your tickets many months before arrival, otherwise you will not find any at the ticket office.Visited May 2022Travelled soloWritten 25 March 2023
- Jonathan ITurku, Finland92 contributionsGreat experienceNeed to be booked in advance. Only 35 persons are allowed in every 15 minutes. We used Tiqets and it worked very well. All the different companies and guides made it a bit hard to locate the guide outside the church. Our guide Lorenzo was very good and did all the talking outside so that we could enjoy the Last Supper mural by Da Vinci in peace. The whole tour was about 1 hour.Visited May 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 16 May 2023

- TerrasTravelsLas Vegas, Nevada459 contributionsThe Last SupperAnother place to not miss in Milan! The Basilica is beautiful as well, but of course you come to see Da Vinci’s “the last supper!” The silence in the room makes it even more empowering. It is amazing to see the artwork up close and in person. You are not allowed to videotape, but you can take pictures. Definitely get tickets in advance. I lucked out that there was one available ticket left on a tour that included the Duomo and the theater and this. It’s the only reason I got to see. And I am so grateful that I was able to see it so last minute! Definitely plan ahead!Visited May 2023Travelled soloWritten 8 October 2023
- Richard MHampstead Norreys, United Kingdom871 contributionsOne of the wonders of the worldThe masin reason to come is the fact that here is where the LAst Supper by da Vinci resides. Once we got into the church and through the many airlocks were we let loose in the refectory. The last supper was as stunning as I had hoped it would be. I was phsyically and emontionally moved by the size and glory of the image. It is one of the wonders of the art world and it is obvious why when you see it.

Around 3 weeks before I went online to check availability and there was none, so first tip is to plan well in advance to avoid over paying and disappointment. We had to bite the bullet and book a tour with an outside company which wasn't cheap, but do we regret it, certainly not. The whole setup is very informative and well organised, letting a small amount of people in at a time allowing you to see and read the information.

This temple is definitely worth a visit and more than once, because here is Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece "The Last Supper". The temple was built in 1466-1490 by architect Gviniforte Solari. In 1492-1497 the building was rebuilt.

It was our long time wishlist visit and finally this time in Milan we were lucky to get the tickets to see the worlds most important fresco by Leonardo as Vinci - Last Supper.
The painting is just stunning, you can feel that the place is super special. All the groups are limited to 30 ppl in it and that gives you a chance to actually stand and appreciate the painting in an intimate setting. No crowds, no loud noises. Our guide was very good and informative. If u have a chance to see the Last Supper you should

Hi,

Very unlikely to be able to get tickets on the day. Often there are scalpers selling over inflated tickets to people who are desperate, better off pre booking. Book direct so you don’t get ripped off

Ticket was part of a (very good) walking tour bought through Get Your Guide. Tour included Milan cathedral and Sforza Castle, ending with Last Supper. We could not go into the church as there was a service taking place but it did not seem to require a separate ticket.

Do you buy separate tickets to the last supper and the church or is it one ticket for both. Also how long is the tour? Thanks

The viewing of The Last Supper is 15 minutes with a guide. We were lucky to get 6:15 p.m. tickets for the day of our visit but this is unusual as bookings go quickly. Go first thing in morning 8 or 8:30.
