Known as the Duomo Milan or Milan Cathedral, the cathedral is one of the most iconic structures in northern Italy. This cathedral, which is the fourth largest church in the world, has an excellent architecture that will amaze you. Anyone visiting Milan should definitely visit this cathedral and try to learn something about the historical building.

The Duomo Cathedral has been an iconic part of Milan for over 600 years. Witnessing some of the most important moments in Italy's history, the cathedral has undergone several renovations and has seen many different monarchs come and go. As a result, this cathedral is one of the most distinctive landmarks in Europe.

Construction of the cathedral began in 1386. The religious building, built in the Gothic style, has huge white towers. Many different architects have worked at the Duomo Milan, as it took quite a long time to be completely built. Therefore, other architectural styles infiltrated the Gothic style.

Nearly 80 chief architects worked on the construction of the cathedral over several centuries. This means that there are thousands of architects, artists, workers and sculptors who add their own touches to the building.

The cathedral has a Pan-European style. Consecrated in 1418, the cathedral is still not fully built. Reasons for delay include differences of opinion, political reasons, lack of money and lack of care.

Interestingly, it was during the reign of Napoleon that the construction of the cathedral reached its final stage. However, the construction of the cathedral will never be fully completed. That's why the cathedral needs regular maintenance.
