Castle Museums
Why locals love it
After the unification of Italy and many years of military use, Sforzesco Castle was returned to the city of Milan. Architect Luca Beltrami was entrusted with the restoration of this old fortress. What remains today is only part of the original structure built by the Sforza family in the 15th century.
