Milan, they climb the main spire of Milan Cathedral at dawn, almost to the Madonnina


This morning at dawn, two young men climbed the main spire of Milan Cathedral, almost to the point of reaching the Madonnina. Apparently, their sole purpose was to post their feat on social media.

Two young men aged eighteen and twenty (French according to rumors) climbed at aba this morning onto the main spire of Milan Cathedral, the one on which the famous Madonnina stands out. Once noticed and called out, the two came down of their own free will and were taken over by the Local Police who were waiting for them.

According to reports from the latter, the young men acted around six o’clock, but it is not yet clear when they went up. They may have remained on the monument last night, hiding at closing time. The two would have no connection with the writers who had daubed the pediment of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II arch with spray cans a few days ago. According to rumors, they would not even be boys belonging to organized groups of climbers but amateur practitioners of parkour. They had no canisters or parachutes on them, and it seems their only purpose was to post their feat on social media, particularly Instagram.



Identified, the decisions of the judicial authorities are now awaited. There would be no reported dispatch of 118 and fire department vehicles for a preventive intervention.
