Mattia Manzoni

A little gem to discover

The Cathedral of Monza, together with the chapel of Teodolinda and the Museum, is a small gem to discover (and rediscover) in the heart of Lombardy. Exhibition rich in late-antique and Lombard artifacts (if you studied art history, half of the illustrations of your book will see them live here), the small museum of the Cathedral is worth a visit, given the overall negligible cost to access it.
Different speech for the Chapel of Theodolinda, which requires mandatory reservation. If you want to do it directly on the spot, we recommend that you aim for the less frequented times, so as to find free places. In any case, it is a destination that I strongly recommend and that deserves, alone, the visit of Monza. It is a 360 degrees immersion in the great art of the fifteenth century and in the history of the duchy of Milan, of which Monza was one of the protagonists.

Absolutely recommended

I visited this museum during a weekend in early January. The museum is not very large, but it shows with skill various paintings and ancient artifacts of mainly religious theme. Absolutely recommended for lovers of the late Roman and early medieval period.

Truly unique treasures

The museum is well stocked with well-preserved medieval finds. Truly unique treasures. To see the crown, wonderful iron, you must book the visit with a guide as it is located inside the cathedral in the chapel of Theodolinda that I recommend visiting.

Chapel of Theodolinda: wonderful

Chapel of Theodolinda: wonderful. Excellent guide and its directions. The museum is very well set up and preserves treasures worthy of note. With the purchase of the ticket you will receive “your passport” with all the artistic sites of the city of Monza.

Fourteen centuries of history art among unique masterpieces

Quando si visita il duomo di Monza bisognerebbe visitarne anche il museo e la cappella di Teodolinda.
Quattordici secoli d’arte di storia tra capolavori unici al mondo, dall’eredità Longobarda all’arte contemporanea, mentre nella cappella Teodolinda ci sono 45 splendide scene dipinte dagli zavattari e la Corona ferrea custodita dentro la cappella. La guida alla cappella viene fatta ogni mezz’ora ed è quasi obbligatoria la prenotazione.

The most important place of conservation and dissemination...

The most important place for the preservation and dissemination of Lombard culture in Italy and worldwide.
The chapel of Theodolinda depicts scenes from the life of the queen, and contains the famous iron crown that were worn by Charlemagne and Napoleon.
The cathedral is beautiful, both in the facade in Tuscan style and in the beautifully frescoed interior.

Giorgio Bernardi

A visit not to be missed

Very interesting museum with some valuable pieces. Recommend the visit in conjunction with the Iron Crown that is not to be missed given the beauty of the crown and the chapel where it is preserved (guided tour). The Cathedral itself is also very beautiful, both for the facade and for the interior. To observe with attention the medallions of the emperors in the central nave together with all the other frescoes. Fair the cost of the double visit, 12/14 euro. Time required 1.5/2 hours. If you are in Monza, this is a visit not to be missed.

Really interactive and interesting visit

A good experience, at an honest price and supported by a really prepared guide.
The visit to the chapel where the iron crown is kept lasts about half an hour, it is really interactive and interesting.
