Organo del duomo di Milano

The Milan Cathedral pipe organ contains 15,800 pipes distributed across four monumental wooden cases, with the tallest pipe reaching nine meters in height.

The first organ of Milan Cathedral dates back to 1394, created by Fra Martino de Stremidi and placed in the northern sacristy of the building.

Musicians perform organ concerts during the Sonorità Organistiche festival every Saturday from December to July, presenting diverse musical compositions inside the cathedral.

The organ accompanies religious services twice daily at 8:00 AM and 5:30 PM, providing music for both regular ceremonies and special celebrations.

This instrument stands as the largest pipe organ in Italy, featuring two twin consoles with five keyboards each and 211 sound registers for varied musical expressions.
