Little known museum near La Scala. Beautiful art collection, with some precious works and big names. My highlights: the armoury and the sheer craziness of what a man can collect in his lifetime

The assortment of items is quite bizarre, as is some of the decor. Well worth a visit if you want to see something a little different.

A highly original home: all the interiors were crowded with decoration, works of art and furniture, with all sorts of shapes and colours, creating very unusual visual effect http://tinyurl.com/cv3p8ga

Loved this place. Cool to walk through a preserved residence converted to modern museum. Similar to New York's Frick Mansion in this sense.

Entrare in questo scrigno di capolavori e non guardare solo la celebre Dama del Pollajolo ma ammirare San Nicola da Tolentino di Piero della Francesca e la Madonna del Botticelli
