The mighty military fortress built in the fifteenth century by Francesco Sforza on the ruins of a previous castle, preserves numerous evidences of the history of Milan.
Just only walking througth its courtyards, you’ll learn many stories and events that have marked the history of the Milanese Duchy.
The troubled historical events, the various invasions have dispersed the original furniture of the castle, leaving room to a great number of museums that are now located in its rooms.
Among the various evidences and artistic treasures preserved in the Sforza’s Castle, the “Room of the Planks” painted by Leonardo da Vinci, who was at the service of Lodovico il Moro, and the incomplete and moving “Pietà Rondanini” by Michelangelo attract great attention.
