The Duomo di Milano is the a well known Gothic dome and the largest church in Italy. Made of pink-veined white marble it took almost six centuries to complete this breath-taking monument. The old windows, representing an impressive cycle, date back to the 15th century, were designed by designated artists. The golden, 4.16m high, statue of the Madonna by Giuseppe Perego was placed on its pinnacle in 1774.
