Cultural tourism and monuments in Lombardy

Monuments in Lombardy. Visitors who prefer to engage in cultural tourism will appreciate the current guide. Pick the solution that suits you when it comes to visiting monuments in Lombardy.  

Discover the Region's major monuments, plus tourist, artistic and cultural attractions. Lombardy boasts the largest number of UNESCO Sites in the country, providing several tourism options to choose from.

Milan is the obvious place to start. We would like to recommend the Monumental Cemetery while exploring the city, try visiting Porta Romana, Arco della Pace and the Sforza Castle afterwards.

Pavia on the other hand counts with one of the oldest universities in Europe, its Towers and the ancient Ponte Coperto. 

Admire the Caverns of Cattulo and the Capitolium in Brescia. If you are in Como, take a tour of its many lakeshore villas. Let's not forget about the Torrazzo in Cremona and Monza's Royal Villa. Palazzo Estense and the Fortress of Angera are a must in the Province of Varese.
