Private Guided Tour of the Monumental Cemetery of Milan

The Monumental Cemetery of Milan is not just a cemetery, but a genuine open-air museum. Designed by the architect Carlo Maciachini in 1864, it is characterized by an eclectic style, harmonizing Byzantine and Gothic elements with a prevalence of the Romanesque style.

If you really want to get to know Milan, visiting the Cimitero Monumentale is a must. All those people who played a role in the city's history rest inside it, from Manzoni to Toscanini, from Hayez to Marinetti, from Alda Merini to Giorgio Gaber. The cemetery is an ideal place to discover the evolution of Milan's artistic trends between the XIX and XX century.

During this private tour, your expert guide will give you an artistic introduction on the cemetery, then you'll visit the Famedio and the crematory temple, one of the first ones to be built in Europe. You will also be able to discover the history of about 15 selected graves, that either have artistic significance or are the final resting place of famous people.
