Built by Duke Francesco I Sforza and later reworked by the renowned architect Bramante, the 15th-century Basilica di Santa Maria delle Grazie stands as a modest yet significant structure in Milan. The basilica is most famous for housing one of Italy’s most celebrated works of Renaissance art: Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper, which adorns the refectory wall of the adjoining Dominican convent. Visitors can explore the historical and artistic significance of the site, immersing themselves in the rich cultural heritage that this sacred space preserves.
