The Poldi Pezzoli Museum in Milan is located in a beautiful Milanese palace near La Scala in Milan.

You can therefore easily visit these two places in Milan on the same day without walking too much.

The origins of the Poldi Pezzoli Museum collections are linked to the Milanese nobleman Gian Giacomo Poldi Pezzoli (1822-79), who built up a personal and private collection, most of which you can admire today.

When he died, an artistic foundation was created to make his collection public and for the benefit of all.
