★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A statue to Leonardo da Vinci located just outside of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II and not far from the Piazza del Duomo.
Considering you’ll probably be in this area anyway, it’s worth a walk past the statue showing da Vinci exactly as many picture him and honoring is contributions to society. Leonardo loved Milan and clearly the city loved him back.
There’s not much to this, so don’t plan a ton of time. But if you’re into art, monuments, or history, this is worth a brief stop.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful monument at the small and charming square!
This monument is very beautiful. There is a statue of Leonardo Da Vinci at the top. It is located at the Scala square (Piazza della Scala), next to Vittorio Emanuele II Galery.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful serene park surrounded by historical buildings where you can take selfies with the genius himself. There are bench seats scattered around the square to have lunch or people watch (bring your shades).

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This monument stands in tribute to Leonardo da Vinci, the Italian genius of the quintessential Renaissance man of the 15th and 16th century.
The monument features a marble sculpture of da Vinci as he is commonly depicted as an elderly man with a big bushy beard, wearing a full body robe and an engineer hat. The sculpture stands atop a stepped pedestal. On the next step down are four bas-relief sculptures referring to his works. On the next step down on each corner of the pedestal are sculptures of four of his pupils, Giovanni Antonio Boltraffio, Andrea Salaino, Marco d'Oggiono, and Cesare da Sesto.
I was expecting something much more spectacular to honour the great man, but worth a look anyway.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Monument in honor of Leonardo da Vinci, done by Pietro Magni in the 18 hundreds. The statue includes 4 of his disciples and 4 of his abilities: artist, architect, engineer, sculptor.
Most people do not know that Leonardo lived in Milan for 26 years and left a huge legacy.
He worked for Ludovico Sforza, il Moro between 1482-1499. They were both born in the same year, and they had a parity relationship. Ludovico had a deep admiration and allowed da Vinci to express himself as his best, and for this reason today we have The Last Supper and many of his studies in science, anatomy, geometry etc.
It is curious that he also was employed as a master of ceremonies, directing plays, banquets, sumptuous parties, developing all his geniality in ephemeral shows.
I love Leonardo and have been studying in depth his life.
if you would like to listen to legends, real stories, and his philosophical view of art I've learned so far while walking through Milan, see airbnb experiences
