I’ve been in il Duomo di Milano a few times. Yes, it is downright amazing both inside and out. I spent a good 8 hours there with my now wife (was girlfriend at the time).
I wish I knew all of the proper terminology, but the basement area has various treasures & Christian artifacts dating back to God knows when....there are also caskets (again, wrong term) of various Popes, priests, etc.

Just curious for those more familiar with Milan....wasn’t Mussolini “hung out to dry” near il Duomo? I could swear he was, but I forget all of the details.

So help me if those bastards harm so much as a brick in the road near this place let alone an innocent person....
