Milan’s Last Supper How To See

Milan’s Last Supper How To See

Milan’s Last Supper, a Renaissance masterpiece in Milan

You cannot visit Milan without visiting Leonardo Da Vinci’s Last Supper, one of the world’s most renowned  works of art. Admiring this masterpiece is a unique experiene, but it’s not something you can do last-minute!
There are 4 things you should know before planning your trip to the Last Supper in Milan!

The Last Supper isn’t in a museum, but a church…

The Last Supper is not located in a museum: It’s in the Santa Maria delle Grazie church and convent. The work (located in the dining room!) was commissioned by Ludovico Sforza, Duke of Milan, and was believed to be completed between 1495 – 1498.

Getting to Santa Maria delle Grazie is easy! Take the red MM1 subway line to the Conciliazione stop or the green MM2 to Cadorna,where you will see directions for the “Cenacolo Vinciano.” From there, follow the populated Corso Magenta street to the Santa Maria delle Grazie church. The Last Supper can also be reached from the Stazione Centrale (Central Station) with five stops on the green line, or by a 20-minute walk from the Duomo.

Santa Maria delle Grazie, the home of the famed Last Supper

The Last Supper is a painting, not a fresco…

Da Vinci painted the large 15ft-by-29ft piece directly on drywall. That means it’s technically not a fresco (which would be painted on wet plaster).

Da Vinci took the unique step of laying pitch, gesso and mastic on the wall, then painting with tempera over the painting.  This a method that meant the painting started decaying within years of being finished.

You have to buy Last Supper tickets in advance…

Nope, you can’t just stroll in to see the Last Supper: Instead, tickets must be reserved. Ticket dates are released approximately four months in advance and can be purchased online or by phone at +39 0292 800360. The cost is 6.50 euro, plus a 1.50 euro service charge.

Appointments can be scheduled Tuesday to Sunday from 8:15am to 6:45pm. It is  highly suggest booking as early as possible to guarantee admittance to one of history’s most important works of art! And if you’re booking last minute or can’t find tickets for your desired date, there may be a chance at organizing a visit! We suggest periodically checking the website or calling the hotline to snag tickets from a canceled group or individual reservations. Tickets are sometimes for sale the same morning by waiting in line before the first appointment at 8:15AM, but are rarely available.

You have only 15 minutes to admire Da Vinci’s work.

No matter how far in advance you book, you’ll still have only 15 minutes in front of the painting. That’s not much when it comes to observing one of the Renaissance’s most famous works (not to mention one that has launched countless conspiracy theories, movies, and novels!).

To make the most of your time, consider booking a private tour, which lets you experience the painting with an art history expert to bring it to life. And whether you go with a guide or not, make sure to arrive at least 10 minutes prior to your scheduled time (any late visitors will not be allowed entrance!).

Also, remember that large bags are not permitted in the museum area of the church and appropriate clothing (shoulders and knees covered) should be worn during the visit. Photographs are strictly forbidden to preserve the delicate painting.
