I recommend showing up earlier in the morning to avoid the crowds. There are different entrances depending on the ticket you purchase. The staircase is narrow and the turns are quick and can feel a little claustrophobic. Every part of the Duomo is worth taking a moment to take it in.

Beautiful architecture, inside and out. The inside was busy but I was lucky enough to go during…read moreSunday mass, which probably accounted for half the people in there. I had to leave for another experience and came back later to see the Crypt. Some of the staff gave me a hard time about coming back in, wondering why I needed to leave even though I explained I didn't want to wait for 2 hours in the cathedral. I was able to visit the Crypt, which is only open for a short while. It's a beautiful experience if you're able to fit it in. Taking photos inside the Crypt is prohibited. Outside is very busy so be cautious of pick pockets and scammers...they are everywhere. Toilets are available to one side but for a fee.

Look at the other reviews about the architects and the stats as all I know is what I saw. If you are in the area detour to see this. We need more buildings like this in the world.

And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference. Because of indifference, one dies before one actually dies. To be in the window and watch people being sent to concentration camps or being attacked in the street and do nothing, that's being dead." -- Elie Wiesel The Memoriale della Shoah is a Holocaust memorial at the Milano Centrale railway station. It remembers the Jewish men, women and children who were taken to a secret underground platform, Platform 21/ Binario 21, who were crowded into freight cars and who were deported on Holocaust trains to extermination camps. Twenty trains carried 1,200 Jewish victims who left Milan in this fashion to be murdered, predominantly at Auschwitz. Only a handful survived. INDIFFERENZA It was hidden for many years. Since so few survived the Holocaust, the site remained lost to history for many years. When it was later discovered, a push was made to made this a memorial to the crimes committed against so many innocent lives tragically stolen. Visit to remember and pray for those murdered. May it never happen again. Never forget. #2600

As soon as you get in there is a huge wall with the word "indifferenza", which means indifference. In this place lots of Jews where sent to the concentration and extermination camps, with the indifference of Milan's population. There are tracks, and freight trains with the lift that move them up when loaded and ready to leave. At the end of a touchy walk between words, memories, images and videos there is a wall of names, the name of the people sent away. I highly recommend the visit of this place. Just built, is a touchy, emotional experience and a part of recent history of Milan and its people.
