Milan Cathedral
The construction of Milan Cathedral began later, in year 1386, on order of Archbishop Antonio da Saluzzo. Milan Cathedral is known for the extremely long time span of its construction, as the construction lasted over several centuries.
The first main architect was an Italian, but it didn’t take long until foreign architects were hired. Milan Cathedral was built during a time when the Gothic architectural style was popular and the French and German architects were considered the best in this field.
