Guided tour of the historic center (the Broletto, adjacent alleys, and the exterior of the cathedral), the cathedral museum and treasury, and exclusive access to the Chapel of Teodolinda: “Its painted decoration, dating back to the mid-15th century and dedicated to the Stories of Teodolinda, depicted in 45 scenes, stands as a heartfelt tribute to the Lombard sovereign who founded the church and, at the same time, as a testament to the delicate dynastic transition then taking shape in the Duchy of Milan between the Visconti and Sforza families, as indicated by the heraldic symbols painted in the frames and the metaphorical allusions to the marriage between Bianca Maria Visconti and Francesco Sforza found in the images.”
