10Santa Maria delle Grazie and The Last Supper

The Church and Convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie is another outstanding work of Milanese architecture. It was initially built beginning in 1463, but reworked in the late 15th century by Bramante who is generally considered one of the great Renaissance masters.

Within the church’s refectory, on its wester wall, hands Leonardo da Vinci’s great fresco “The Last Supper”, painted between the years 1496 and 1497.
