A must see museum in Milan. This museum exhibits the private collection of Intesa Sanpaolo bank within the former HQ of Banca Commerciale italiana near the Scala. They have acquired several palazzi forming a huge complex with different museum parts from the XIXth century to modern art. Small garden inside.
