Duomo of Milan - The Church That Took 600 Years to Finish

Duomo of Milan - The Milan Cathedral is one of the largest churches in the world. It’s a unique building that was built over the course of hundreds of years. Its construction was anything but straightforward. Many of the most famous architects of the time like Leonardo da Vinci were involved. Another iconic historical figure, Napoleon, was eventually responsible for it finally being finished. And even then, it wasn’t officially declared done until 1965.

What a story. No other cathedral like this exists anywhere in the world. Milan’s treasure. Just transporting all the required marble is astounding. What a group of famous well known architects. Thanks for putting this video together.

Magnificent, intricate and complex structure! Surprising how you don’t hear much about it. Thanks for the upload!

In Milan it is considered never finished because when they finished building it they began repairing and cleaning the oldest marble and now they have a schedule and you can’t find a moment where nothing is being worked on if you don’t see working on the outside you would see it in the inside and viceversa

Wish they wouldnt let other buildings to be built close to such magnificent works.. spoils the view

I will show this to my client who complains about the contractor taking too long to build my minimalistic design 😂

[maxsavage]

The fact it took 600 years is mindboggling

[willeggert]

What are you sources for all this information? I'd love to learn more about it.

A tip about our Duomo here in Milano: it's the only chattedral in the world with a feminine state at the top, instead of a cross.

Don't lie, some of you came to see if anyone made Anor Londo comments😂

If you think this is impressively detailed, you sure as hell have not visited sagrada familia yet....

[jrlovesu]

Nice monument however, I cannot wrap my mind around building a church to worship God/Jesus yet its decorated with statues honoring everyone (even Napoleon) but the Lord our God...doesn't the 1st two commandments say God is a jealous God & do not make unto thee any graven images?🤔

What a terrible way of telling a story with that monotonous tone but I guess thank you for the info I guess
