Castello Sforzesco (Sforza Castle) is a magnificent medieval fortification located in Milan. Built in the 15th century by Francesco Sforza, Duke of Milan, it has been restored and enlarged over the centuries to become one of the largest citadels in Europe.

Today, Castello Sforzesco is a public museum, and you can find several art galleries.

It's a must-visit in Milan and you could easily spend hours here exploring its many museums.

The castle has the largest park in the city right behind it, Parco Sempione. A visit to the castle wouldn't be complete without visiting the park as well.
