The Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie in one of Milan's most important and iconic churches. This historic church and Dominican convent is home to one of the most iconic works of art ever seen – The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci. Built in 1463, and designed by the main architect, Guiniforte Solari, the combination of Gothic and Renaissance elements makes this building beautiful inside and out.

The sacristy contains frescoes from Bramantino and Bernardo Zenale while the Chapel of the Holy Crown, located at the right of the nave houses a painted altarpiece of Christ receiving the crown of thorns.

Besides being a tourist attraction, Santa Maria delle Grazie also hosts events and conferences like musical concerts and artistic exhibitions.
