The Duomo di Milano is the cathedral church of the Italian city of Milan, dedicated to Santa Maria Nascente (Saint Mary Nascent) and seat of the Archbishop of Milan, currently Cardinal Angelo Scola. Access to the cathedral is made through five large bronze doors from Piazza Duomo. The Front Door was raised in 1582, but it was not opened until 1908. This door is dedicated to the Virgin Mary and each of their boxes has a biblical chapter that refers to the life of the Virgin. |
