Pinacoteca Ambrosiana and da Vinci's Codex Atlanticus admission in Milan

Visit: Pinacoteca Ambrosiana, Piazza Pio XI 2, 20123 Milan Italy

Make your way to the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana in Milan, just five minutes away from the famous Piazza Duomo. 

With your entry ticket in hand, you'll step straight inside the museum to enter the exhibit of the Codex Atlanticus: Leonardo da Vinci’s personal collection of drawings and notes. 

Offering insight into the creative mind of the Renaissance artist and inventor, the exhibit showcases select pages from the collection, and these are rotated regularly. If you want to see the rest — the Codex Atlanticus has more than 1,000 pages — head to the museum’s library. Your admission ticket grants access to all the main areas of the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana. 

Explore its halls to see works of art by Botticelli, Titian, Raphael, and more. Caravaggio’s Basket of Fruit, a still-life painting, is just one of the highlights.

How long you stay inside the museum is up to you. The recommended visit time is 1.5 hours.
