Last Supper and San Maurizio Church: tour in English

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Chiesa di San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore, Corso Magenta 15, 20123 Milan Italy

The church is called "the Sistine Chapel of Milan" and its simple and bare façade hides, like a real treasure chest, more than 2500 square meters of frescoes distributed on the walls and on the side chapels of this ancient convent church.
With our professional guide we will admire the magnificent fresco decoration realised during the Sixteenth Century by several great lombard painters but above all the work of Bernardino Luini, whose bright painting reflects the great innovations brought by Leonardo da Vinci to the city of Milan. The attention for the details, the sense of space and movement combined with a great sweetness in the representation of faces make every corner of this place a fascinating discovery.

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Piazza Santa Maria delle Grazie 2, 20123 Milan Italy

Take a very ambitious Duke, Ludovico il Moro, add a clever artist in search of opportunity, Leonardo da Vinci, and complete everything with the superior mind of a Renaissance archistar, Donato Bramante… You will soon get a clear picture of what Santa Maria delle Grazie could represent in that period: a great site where besides the monastery they were building ideas.
We take you through the events that linked these illustrious characters and we will unveil anecdotes and some gossips of their daily life. It will be like flying with a time machine to land in a corner of the Renaissance Milan. In fact, it doesn’t happen everyday to walk on Leonardo’s footprints in a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Duration: 20 minutes
