The Castello Sforzesco (Italian for "Sforza's Castle") is a medieval fortification located in Milan, northern Italy. It was built in the 15th century by Francesco Sforza, Duke of Milan. Amazing place to have your photo taken. The best part, no tickets required. Its free entry for all.
Gigantic and well maintained. Classic and history castle in Milan. Worth a quick visit if you have time.
this castle is incredibly interesting. there are so many galleries and museums to explore within the grounds. I got to learn lots about art, culture and history after spending a few hours here.
General European style building, looks nothing special
