Davide Downburst

One of the most beautiful museums on the planet

One of the most beautiful museums on the planet: seen three times in three different periods of my life, it contains a UNIQUE collection of authentic Lombard wonders (the famous iron crown is only one!). Extraordinary.

Vittorio Maria Savoldelli

A dive into the history of Lombardy’s Middle Ages

Excellent museum, very interesting.
You can see the iron crown only accompanied, the guide is competent and friendly. A dive into the history of the Lombard Middle Ages.

Gianluca Agostoni

The museum is really well maintained and hides real treasures related to the history of Italy.
Highly trained guides who make the visit even more interesting.

Fabrizio Guccione

A beautiful story of Monza

Pleasant museum. In modern hypogei spaces unfolds a beautiful story of the history of Monza through the place prince of its history: the Cathedral. One tip: the visit to the Iron Crown is guided. Check the times and book.

Paolo Beria

The chapel is a masterpiece of international Gothic

A wonderful and unique collection of Lombard and late Antiquity art. The chapel is a masterpiece of international Gothic. You can visit only the museum and/or guided view on a chapel reservation and iron crown. Do both!
