Story · Museo Poldi Pezzoli

You're standing on Via Manzoni, just a short walk from La Scala, Milan's famous opera house. At number 12 you'll see a stately palazzo with a clean, Neoclassical front. This is the Museo Poldi Pezzoli. From the street it looks like a grand private home, and for a long time that's exactly what it was. The architect Simone Cantoni gave the palace its present classical shape, with an English-style garden tucked away inside.
