It was my second time in Milano. Second time in Duomo. But the first time on the roof! Winter. Cold. Windy. Sunny and shinny! Stunning! Must climb and see if the weather is fineThe roof was allowed to visit only after 12. It turned to be very slippery during cold winds and rainy nights. Verrrry cold if windy - have a cap or hat!
It was a ton of stairs, crowded and quite the trip to get there, but the trip was so worth it! The views were beautiful and it was so neat to be up there. It was fairly inconvenient to figure out how to do this - you had to buy tickets down the street and then stand in a fairly long line, but the end result was worth it.
when you will buy a stair ticket in a till on a right side of a maintrance of Catherdral you don't have to wait in a long quene :)
a must see when in Millan, the sculptural value and beauty of the Terrazze del Duomo is spectacularly gorgeous and breathtaking. Please make sure you see it when in Milan.
If you're already there then be sure to take the stairs all the way to the top. The view is beautiful and you can sit there, take a break and just enjoy the moment!
Roof is usually something not having a lot of details in a building.But this does not apply to Duomo.The roof is a small town by itself.We went up using lift and we are amazed with the beautiful sculpture on the roof.Easily you can spend one hour there.The view of Milan overall also can be seen from here.
Definitely worth the climb, excellent views of the City. We caught it on a clear day and even views of the Alps in the distance, very good!
Visited just before sunset and was magical. Brilliant views of city. Don't try to save few euro by taking stairs. Take the lift, stairs are exhausting. (!)
We bought the ticket using the lift it is cheaper if you use the stairs. €12 per adult. You can walk around the main roof and terrace viewing the hundreds of statues gargoyles and buttresses and view Milan city. We were lucky enough to have lovely weather making the experience even better. There are still steps to climb if you want to get to the main roof. I would highly recommend this attraction.
The price seemed a bit high, but totally worth to visit once. You can observe the statues, and other elements of the Duomo from closer. But the most important, is the great view on the city, and mountain around. Must see!
