You step off the tram into the spare, sunlit square in front of Santa Maria delle Grazie and the city noise shifts down a gear. Your guide waits by the church’s brick façade; in minutes you move through the doors and into the hush of the refectory where Leonardo’s Last Supper hangs behind climate-controlled glass. The room compresses time—the chatter of the piazza barely reaches the painted table.
easy.
1 hour.
Able to stand, walk short distances and manage stairs or doorways; moderate mobility required
No—photography inside the refectory is strictly prohibited to protect the artwork; your guide will indicate where photos are allowed in the museum areas outside the refectory.

Leonardo painted The Last Supper for the refectory of Santa Maria delle Grazie between 1495–1498 under the patronage of Ludovico Sforza; subsequent restorations have been extensive due to experimental techniques and environmental damage.
Strict visitor limits, climate control, and a long-term conservation program protect the mural; following rules like no photography helps preserve pigments for future generations.
