From Monza to Milan

The 24th day of the Saint Augustine's Way.

Automatically translated

The twenty-fourth day of the Saint Augustine's Way, which begins at the Shrine of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Monza, includes visits to two additional Marian shrines and then concludes at the Basilica of Sant'Ambrogio in Milan.

On this completely southbound route, once you pass through the center of Cinisello Balsamo you cross the North Park, entering Milan from Piazzale Maciachini.

From here, you reach the center by crossing Via Brera, Piazza Scala and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, and then continue in the direction of the Sanctuary of Santa Maria delle Grazie, next to which is the famous Da Vinci Last Supper.

In a few hundred meters of walking distance, the Basilica of Sant'Ambrogio is finally reached.
