On the Roof of Milan Cathedral

On the Roof of Milan Cathedral Nave Buy tickets to visit the rooftop terraces of Milan Cathedral โ€” it is 250 stairs (or a short elevator ride) for close-up views of the gargoyles and Gothic spires.

Visiting the rooftop of Milan’s cathedral is a memorable experience and not easily confused with visiting yet another church interior on an Italian holiday. Visitors may go all the way up to the roof of the nave – here the back of the western facade, which was only completed in the early 19th century.
