The cemetery contains the sculpted tombs of many families of the Milanese bourgeoisie.

Built in 1866, its 25,000 m² are home to the sculpted tombs of numerous families of the Milanese bourgeoisie, as well as Italian celebrities and artists such as the writer Alessandro Manzoni, of all faiths. The result is an impressive collection of chapels, crypts, statues and works by renowned artists such as Giacomo Manzù and Francesco Messina. A veritable open-air museum, each tomb is a monumental folly; wander among the tombs to spot, for example, a scale reproduction of the Leaning Tower of Pisa...

Il nous avait été conseillé de visiter ce cimetière. Nous ne nous attendions pas à voir des sépultures aussi majestueuses et somptueuses. La visite, même par temps de pluie, est à programmer. L'atmosphère est très sereine, loin de l'agitation du centre ville. Il faut compter au moins 2 bonnes heures pour en effectuer le tour complet mais une demi-heure peut permettre de pénétrer la particularité du lieu.
