Palazzo Dugnani
Palazzo Dugnani is one of Milan’s most elegant Baroque residences, standing beside the Giardini Indro Montanelli and offering a quiet glimpse into the city’s aristocratic past. Built in the late seventeenth century and later expanded by the Casati and Dugnani families, the palace became a vibrant intellectual hub in eighteenth‑century Milan. Its most celebrated feature is the grand salon frescoed by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, depicting scenes from the life of Scipio, a masterpiece that still dominates the interior despite being transferred to canvas during the Second World WarArtsupp. The palace’s façade, with its refined stuccoes and octagonal tower, faces the gardens, recalling the era when it stood as a countryside villa on the city’s edge. Today, Palazzo Dugnani opens occasionally for exhibitions, preserving its layered history and artistic legacy for visitors who seek Milan’s quieter cultural treasures.

Palazzo Dugnani is located at Via Daniele Manin 2, on the western edge of the Indro Montanelli Gardens in central Milan, close to Porta Venezia and within the historic Centro Storico district. Nearby you will find the Indro Montanelli Public Gardens themselves, the Milan Natural History Museum, the Modern Art Gallery (Galleria d’Arte Moderna), Villa Reale, and the elegant Corso Venezia, all within a short walk and forming one of Milan’s key cultural and green areas.
