"Back to the Twentieth Century The Museo del Novecento (Museum of the 20th century) is a visual lesson in one century of Italian art history. Housed is the 1930s Palazzo dell'Arengario by Rationalist architects Piero Portaluppi and Giovanni Muzio. The Novecento also houses an amazing collection, Who's Who of the 1900s, including Italians Balla, Modigliani, Boccioni, Martini, Morandi, and De Chirico and international artists like Picasso, Matisse, and Klee. In fact, the museum is considered one of the world's most important collections of Italian and international 20th-century art in Italy—Futurism, Spatialism, and Arte Povera. Keep your eye out for Piero Manzoni's clever Arte Povera pieces, Arturo Marini's large stone figures, and Pellizza Da Volpedo's monumental painting Il Quarto Stato (The Fourth Estate). Martini also did the palazzo's exterior bas relief. Bonus: The upper level bar/restaurant overlooks Piazza del Duomo."

This art gallery is absolutely fantastic — the exhibitions are thoughtfully curated, and the atmosphere is inspiring. The only downside is that the air conditioning on most floors feels quite weak, especially during warmer days. The top floor near the piano area was pleasantly cool, but the lower levels could really use better ventilation.

Beautiful museum that helps you to know more about the Italian art context of the 20th century. Also, the building is interesting and gives you an exeptional view of Duomo and the place in front of it, above the tourists' crowds. The entry price is surprisingly affordable compared to other museums and highlights of Milan, 5€ only. I highly recommend the place 😍

Museum of important works of art of the XXth century mostly Italian, in a beautiful building. Boccioni, Severini, Carra, Balla, Fontana, Picasso and other well known artists. It has a restaurant with interesting dishes on the 3rd floor to enjoy a cup of coffee or a delicious meal overlooking the Duomo

The best view for the square and the cathedral. The collection is impressive and organized very beautifully in the building. The price is also very attractive for low budget travellers.

Highly recommended to anyone interested in XX century italian art. The exhibition, largely created with donations and custodianships, presents notable art from the early century's Futurism and modernist movements up to graphical and conceptual art of the late nineties.

Totally worth a visit!! 20th and 21st century art (paintings, sculptures, installations) and a great view of the Duomo. Personal favourites Boccioni, Carrà and De Chirico, but you also see Severini, Modigliani, Kandinsky, Mondrian. Plus easily accessible! I hope to come back soon.

Very nice museum, I don't know if admission is always free, but on Sundays I think it is. From the top floor there are incredible views of the cathedral. The elevator is only for workers

Lots of interesting modern pieces including a minor Picasso study and several good Modiglianis. But also lots of the ridiculous banana-taped-to-a-wall kind of concept stuff that makes modern art seem so lame. It is nice that descriptions are in both Italian and English but unfortunate that they are of the art history, pseudo-intellectual jargon babble style that makes them unintelligible in any language. The most amusing thing in the museum may be the pathetic model-wannabes posing in multiple outfits in front of the Duomo view on the fifth floor. Really, girls other people might want to see the view too- without you in it. The admission price is a good bargain but I would pay double if the administrators would buy some seating for tired guests and maybe oil the escalators once in awhile.
