Some are widely known by cultural tourism enthusiasts such as the Milan Cathedral or Duomo, Pavia's Certosa or the Hermitage of Santa Caterina on the shores of Lake Maggiore. Besides these major landmarks, Lombard cities offer lesser-known corners and details. 

While visiting the regional capital, you will realize the wealth of monumental churches it hides. You just need to pay attention to discover a door waiting to be stepped into, once inside, marble columns and flooring will greet you among surprising religious treasures.
