I have the same question about Milan that I had about Florence. Does anyone know how far it is from the train station to DaVinci's 'The Last Supper' at the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie and what is the best way to get there from the train station? The guide book I have suggests taking the metro or a tram.
Thanks again for any assistance.

We did this in October. You can take the Metro from Centrale to the Duomo. Then from the Duomo, change lines to Cadorna Station. You need to walk a few blocks from Cadorna to Santa Maria delle Grazie. You can get walking directions on Google Maps. FWIW, check out the posting at http://www.ItalianNotebook.com about Santa Maria delle Grazie's history. There is a related post from some months ago about the history of "Cenacolo." You might want to subscribe to Italian Notebook. I've learned about a lot of great locations, festivals, and culture.

Dear Laurel,
Thanks so much for your reply. Can you tell me approximately how long it took for you to travel from the train station to the Church of Santa Maria? I have to sign up for a time to view 'The Last Supper' and the only time yet available is early and would be tight with the train arrival. Thanks! Susan
