Practical guide
Plan without surprises
Before you choose
Booking is mandatory for every visitor, including those entitled to free admission. Entry is in controlled groups and visitors spend 15 minutes in the refectory. Reach the ticket office at least 30 minutes before your slot for ID checks, ticket activation, and bag storage if needed.
Official admission or a guided tour?
Basic admission is sold through the museum’s authorized official channel. Partner experiences generally include admission and a guide. They may suit travelers who want context or cannot match the official inventory to fixed travel dates. Always check language, meeting point, duration, and cancellation terms.
What you will see
The former convent refectory contains Leonardo’s Last Supper on the north wall and Giovanni Donato da Montorfano’s Crucifixion of 1495 opposite it. The short, controlled route exists to protect both the paintings and the room’s delicate environment.
Plan the rest of your day
The museum is at Piazza Santa Maria delle Grazie 2. Conciliazione on M1 and Cadorna on M1/M2 are the most useful metro stops; tram 16 stops near the church. Sforza Castle and the historic center are straightforward onward destinations.
