Milan: Last Supper and Sforza Castle Guided Tour
Enjoy skip-the-line entry and immerse yourself in history with this guided English tour of Leonardo da Vinci’s iconic Last Supper at Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan. Meet your licensed local art historian guide outside the UNESCO-listed Church and step into the ancient refectory where the masterpiece was painted between 1494 and 1498. Travel back in time as your guide reveals the story behind the creation of this extraordinary mural. Admire the expressive gestures of Christ and the twelve apostles up close, while learning about the innovative perspective and modern techniques Leonardo employed—revolutionary for their time.
After the visit, continue your journey through Milan’s Renaissance past with a walk to the majestic Sforza Castle. Built in the 15th century by Francesco Sforza on the ruins of a former Visconti fortress, the castle served as a ducal residence and a powerful symbol of the Sforza dynasty.
