Museo della Certosa

The Museo della Certosa occupies two floors of the Ducal Palace, featuring a plaster cast gallery and an extensive picture collection.

The museum, founded by architect Luca Beltrami, opened its doors in 1911 but experienced periods of closure until its permanent reopening in 2008.

The collection includes marble sculptures, religious paintings, and architectural elements that represent the artistic legacy of the Visconti-Sforza period.

Visitors can explore both the ground floor Gipsoteca with detailed plaster casts and the first floor Pinacoteca containing original artworks and sculptures.

The museum houses the plaster reproduction of Ludovico il Moro and Beatrice d'Este's funerary monument, with only one other copy existing in Moscow.
