You will begin this exclusive Milanese tour in front the “Triennale Milano” with one of our expert guides, who will accompany you to the Branca Tower, exclusively before public opening hours. This tower that was built in the 1930s, stands as Milan’s modernist totem in Parco Sempione. Designed by the renowned architect Gio Ponti, the tower is celebrated as an architectural masterpiece where modern techniques and artistic design converge. Rising to 108.6 meters, the tower’s transparent, slender form offers panoramic views of Milan, made possible by high-strength crystal walls that provide a unique view of the city below. Ascend to the top in less than a minute, thanks to a modern elevator that accommodates up to seven people at a time.
During terse days, from the Platform located at the top of the Tower, you will be able to admire the whole City skyline as well as great part of Lombardy plain, Alps and Apennines.
After indulging in the beauty of Milan from up high, you will be led towards Parco Sempione, Milan’s beloved city park. This green landscape has a fascinating story that dates back to the 19th century with a rich history that blends nature, culture, and Milanese heritage. Originally used as a hunting ground for noble families, the land was later transformed into a public park in 1894. Today, Parco Sempione is not only an essential green lung for the city but also a symbol of Milan’s continuous evolution, where history, art, and modern urban life collide.
Following the visit of the tower and the park, the tour will continue to the Sforza Castle, a fortress and one of the symbols of the city. During your time inside the Castle, discover why this was one of the largest citadels in Europe and immerse yourself in the fascinating history of this iconic structure and the stories about Milan’s most powerful families. You will be sure to understand why this is one of Milan’s most treasured and visited landmarks.
