The Madonnina is a gilded bronze statue of the Virgin Mary perched atop the tallest spire of Milan's Duomo cathedral at 108 meters high. It's the iconic symbol of Milan and offers sweeping views of the entire city and surrounding areas from the cathedral rooftop, reachable by elevator or a climb of roughly 250 steps. Note that from ground level you can't see the statue's details clearly—you need to be at a distance or go up to the rooftop to appreciate it fully.
