If you find yourself in Milan, make sure you visit the Leonardo da Vinci Galleries located in the Museum of Science and Technology of Milan. It is the largest permanent exhibition in the world dedicated to Leonardo da Vinci.

Leonardo da Vinci was born on April 15, 1452, near Florence, in the town of Vinci, which provided his surname. He died on May 2, 1519. He was a painter, sculptor, architect, designer, theorist, engineer and scientist. He painted 22 paintings including two of his famous works: Mona Lisa and the Last Supper.

Gifted with a curious mind and a brilliant intellect, his notebooks were filled with inventions, observations and theories about pursuits from aeronautics to human anatomy that were centuries ahead of their time.

The Leonardo da Vinci Galleries will take you through a journey exploring 170 historical models, works of art, antique volumes and 39 multimedia installations that bring the exhibition’s narrative to life.
