The Breathtaking Rooftop of the Duomo

A visit to the Milan Duomo would be incomplete without experiencing the charm of its rooftop. With two separate tickets for foot and lift access, the rooftop is a culmination of the cathedral’s grandeur. For those able to climb the 251 steps, a breathtaking panorama of Milan awaits, offering views of the Galleria dome and the Porta Nuova skyscrapers framed by spires.

The rooftop also offers a close view of the Madonnina, a 4-meter high, gilded copper statue of the Virgin Mary. Standing at a height of 108 meters on the Duomo’s highest spire, the Madonnina has become an emblem of the city of Milan. Its historical significance is marked by a longstanding tradition where a replica of the Madonnina is placed atop the tallest building in Milan. Currently, replicas adorn the top of the Pirelli, Unicredit, and Arcelor Mittal buildings.
