Monumental Cemetery

It opened in 1866 to a design by Carlo Maciachini, and for a century Milan's wealthy families competed to build the most spectacular tomb here. You enter through the Famedio, a great neo-medieval marble hall that serves as a pantheon of notable citizens, including the writer Alessandro Manzoni.

Along the paths are temples, obelisks, a pyramid and sculpture in every style, from 19th-century realism to Art Nouveau and Art Deco. One of the best known is the Campari family tomb, with a life-size bronze Last Supper.
