Subject Areas.: Underground Milan

Let’s delve into the underground of Milan to visit and discover an underground Milan, thousands of years old and hidden, branching out beneath the city’s squares and streets. Guided walking tours that wind their way through the ancient Roman streets of Milan, through hidden tunnels and underground streets, among excavations and archaeological sites, cemetery areas, crypts and baptisteries, ossuaries and air-raid shelters. Let us, then, leave behind the bright light of day and allow our eyes to get used to the mysterious penumbra of underground Milan, to visit the Duomo Baptistery, the Crypt of San Sepolcro or the Crypt of San Giovanni in Conca, all the way back to the II G.M. with the few air-raid shelters still visitable in the city. Real cultural experiences more than just guided tours that offer us a new perspective to rediscover together how much, of the city’s origins, has survived the passage of time under the streets of Milan, among history, art and obscure legends.
