Mags
★★★★★2 months agoIts a must see when in Milan. Very innovative and interactive place dedicated to the genius of renesance. Over 200 interactive models. Perfect for familys and kids.
Christine Loh
★★★★★3 months agoThe museum gave me a great experience. Interactive panel and experience invention engages me to understand how some of Leonardo's inventions are made and assembled. This place is great for tourists who don't have lots of days in Milan and spending a good 2 hours or more on the exhibitions. There's also the replica of The Last Supper painting along with explanation helps my understanding.
