  The collection of paintings is fantastic. However, there is also an impressive old library which is worth a visit. The ground floor of the building is a school of arts, so if you stroll through it you can get an insight on the students' work there and that's also quite an experience.

  Beautiful museum with stunning pieces. Recommend leaving more than an hour for your visit. Love the write ups with each piece and it just takes more time to really appreciate and read about each one.

  Would not go again and would not recommend. The courtyard itself is free and more interesting than the art exhibition. The staff was not friendly at the ticket counter and the ticket cost 10€ (even though they state that the price is 7€ for ages 18-24 and European citizens, they ignored it and sold everyone in line tickets for full price). The inside of the gallery was disappointing, there were not that many paintings and it was the most underwhelming experience I had in Milan.

  Large collection of arts across the different decades. Very impressive display and there are many more in storage as they rotate them due to lack of space for display. Place was a bit understated from the outside and art displays were upstairs. Ticketing staff could have been more informative for non Italian speakers and it's also strange that they told me to keep my duffle bag in locker when I am about to finish the viewing at the end of the gallery.

  Incredible collection. It was such a pleasure to spend the afternoon here. Usually after about 30 crucifixion scenes in most museums I want to move on, but the way this collection was laid out and explained was marvelous. The plaques were so informative and many had a second plaque with either descriptions by other artists/art critics or things to look for in the paintings. There were so many different takes on the birth of Christ, crucifixion, etc that were incredibly moving even for someone like myself who is not religious. The museum is laid out beautifully. We were there for almost three hours and it felt like the time flew by.
