Castello Sforzesco is a breathtaking free historic Castello Sforzesco is a breathtaking free historic site in Milan to explore 🏰

This castle was once home to the prominent Sforza family, and was originally constructed in the 14th century 🧱

Parts of the defence were even designed by da Vinci 🧑🏼‍🎨

Behind the castle you can find Parco Sempione, which is beautiful to walk around. This is where you’ll find the Olympic flame too, if you’re visiting Milan now 🔥

Basilica di Sant’Ambrogio is by far one of my favo Basilica di Sant’Ambrogio is by far one of my favourite free historic sites in Milan to visit 🤩

It’s the perfect alternative if you aren’t planning on going inside of the Duomo 🔔

The basilica was built in the 4th century by St Ambrose, and is one of the oldest churches in Milan 🧱

Both the courtyard and the interior of the basilica are open to the public, and it’s a beautiful spot to take photos near sunset too when there are less people around 📸

Have you heard of this landmark in Milan before? 🇮🇹
