We were excited to walk in to the museum. We bought the tickets at the ticket counter. They handed us a map but failed to tell us half the museum was closed. We were still charged full price. It was upsetting to miss out on half the experience we were hoping for.

This is based on the collections created by the original owner of the building. Some interesting renaissance paintings along side ornate watches and other items. Not a critical place to visit but worth a look if time allows.

The museum is not large in size but houses a handful of major canvases. Among the major works there is a beautiful Rafael portrait.

This museum houses the private collection of Poldi Pezzoli and is a delightful selection of pieces of quality based in a private palace. Unfortunately much of the house was destroyed in Allied bombing raids, but the study of Mr Poldi Pezzoli remains and is a splendid Gothic Revival space with lovely stained glass and exuberant decoration.

This is really an excellent museum with a very diverse collection and some real masterpieces. Some collections may only interest specific people. Among the most interesting collections I found the ancient textiles (from early Christian Egypt) and the time pieces. But this museum really has a lot to offer.

Full of great paintings by famous artists, including Canaletto, Botticelli, Piera Della Francesca, Mantegna, and ceramics, glass, armour, a lifetime collection of stunning diversity and artistic value. Here you will find paintings you have seen in books on great art. Impossible to do justice to this lovely collection in a short review.

I visited the Museo Poldi Pezzoli in January 2020. It is another excellent museum in Milan. The ticket cost 14 euros. I first went to see Leonardo da Vinci's Litta Madonna. Then I went up the stairs to the first floor which has an unbelievable variety of artifacts and items. This includes paintings (for example - Botticelli, Bellini, Mantegna and many others), frescos, porcelain and China, Murano glass, clocks, watches, jewelry. Back on the ground floor is a collection of armor and weapons. I really enjoyed this museum.

It is a little museum very close to la Scala in Manzoni street. There are incredible mastterpieces like "Madonna Litta" from Leonardo da Vinci,coming from Hermitage St Petersburg, together other "Madonna with child" from artist from his workshop like Giovanni Antonio Boltraffio and Marco d’Oggiono together with Francesco Napoletano. Some private collection of 19th century,owned to Poldi Pezzoli family, ancient furnitures, colour window glasses, theme rooms. Interesting!

An amazing collection, wonderfully displayed, in a very nice 19th cent. palace. Each room has a different theme. We really loved it. This museum is part of the 4 houses pass in Milan.

Italy is blessed with many attractive collections of great art. Poldi Pezzoli offers an opportunity to appreciate and enjoy some great masterpieces in an intimate house setting. From trecento masters like Bernardo Daddi to quatrocento giants like Piero della Francesca, Giovani Bellini, Mantegna, Botticelli and Polaiollo the visitor can peacefully absorb the beauty and sincerity of one of the greatest epochs of world art. On top of all this at the present time there is a special exhibition on Leonardo and his legacy with the wonderful Madonna Litta that was brought from the Hermitage museum in Saint Petersburg. A good reason to run and visit this delightful museum before this painting disappears again the foreboding Hermitage.

This museum is about a block away from the LaScala building and worth visiting. You will need to store your backpack in the lockers provided. Photos are allowed (no flash). This is the private collection of one man and it is housed in his mansion. He gifted the house and the collections to the city when he passed away.

I did not have a good visit. Lots of security guards standing around talking very loudly. One security guard was having a conversation on his phone. It detracted from the visit. I gave up and left.

House museum with an impressive collection of art. Great setting to view Italian renaissance art. The building itself is its own piece of art. It had many fewer people than the Pinocoteca di Brera.

Such an interesting museum! I especially like the collection of clocks and watches. I'd visit again.

One of my favorite museums not only in Milan but elsewhere. It is small enough to tour in an hour or two. Many interesting and outstanding items of art and objects have been added in recent years; however, the museum is not as "user friendly" as before.
