Manzoni House

Manzoni House is a museum in a palazzo in Milan that spans multiple floors and displays residential spaces from the 1800s. The rooms contain original furnishings that reflect the living style of that era and offer insight into the domestic environment of a major literary figure.

The palazzo came into the writer's possession in 1813 and became his residence and center of literary work. Decades later the facade received a redesign in 1864 in Neo-Renaissance style, which gave the building its present appearance.

The residence carries the name of the author who lived and worked here for decades, drawing visitors interested in understanding his creative life. The rooms show how an important writer of the 1800s organized his daily life and connected with artists and thinkers of his era.

The museum sits centrally in Milan near well-known landmarks and is easily accessible by public transport. Visitors should allow about two hours to walk through the displayed rooms and should check in advance whether guided tours are offered.

During his final years the house was a meeting point for prominent figures from Italian history and culture. Among the visitors were influential people whose names are connected with major events of the 1800s.
