The Monumental Cemetery is a vast complex that is worth visiting for both its historic, and artistic value. The central building was designed by Maciachini and constructed between 1860 and 1897. It is in a Neo-Medieval style with some Tuscan, Venetian and Lombard work which shows the skilful use of many kinds of marbles and stones. It is located at the end of a wide avenue running from Porta Volta with the entrance leading you to the central part of the ‘Famedio’ that houses the mortal remains of famous Milanese citizens.
