Milan: Leonardo’s Legacy & Masterpieces Guided Walking Tour

Discover Leonardo da Vinci’s legacy on a guided walking tour through Milan. Learn how his art, ideas, and influence shaped the city you see today, and enjoy a well-paced experience that brings together history, creativity, and key locations.

Begin your journey at the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana, one of Milan’s most important art museums, with included entry tickets. Here, see The Musician, Leonardo da Vinci’s only painting still in the city. This important Renaissance portrait highlights Leonardo’s mastery of human expression and early portrait techniques.

Explore the Codex Atlanticus, the largest surviving collection of Leonardo’s original sketches, inventions, and handwritten notes in Italy. In the Leonardo Room, discover rare early copies of The Last Supper created by Leonardo’s disciples, offering a fascinating perspective on one of the world’s most iconic masterpieces.

Continue along historic Corso Magenta, a charming street shaped by Milan’s Renaissance past. Your walk then leads to the Church of San Maurizio, often called the “Sistine Chapel of Milan.” Admire its extraordinary Renaissance frescoes, considered the height of artistic achievement of Leonardo’s school in Milan. These works reflect the strong influence of his workshop and followers on the city’s artistic evolution.

While this tour does not include a visit to The Last Supper, it offers a deeper and more comprehensive exploration of Leonardo’s artistic genius through his original works, manuscripts, and the places that shaped his legacy in Milan.
