Cimitero Monumentale

Cultural siteMilanAbout 1.3 hours

An open-air gallery of funerary sculpture from the 1860s onward, laid out like a small city and free to walk. Unexpected, uncrowded, and one of the more memorable hours in Milan for anyone who likes sculpture or a camera. Twenty minutes north of the centre by tram.
