A recent discovery beneath Milan's Sforza Castle has unveiled a network of hidden tunnels that closely match sketches made by Leonardo da Vinci in 1495. This finding is the result of collaborative research from Polytechnic University of Milan, castle authorities, and the engineering firm Codevintec Italiana, employing advanced digital scanning technologies. The origins and purpose of these tunnels remain unclear, but they may lead to more hidden historical remnants, as only a fraction of the original castle structure remains today, greatly altered over the centuries.
Da Vinci's sketches of hidden tunnels beneath Sforza Castle have been verified by scientists, showcasing the intersection of art and advanced technology in uncovering history.
Researchers at the Polytechnic University of Milan used advanced scanning technology to discover tunnels that closely align with Leonardo da Vinci's sketches, revealing historical secrets.
Lead researcher Francesca Biolo noted that 'Sforza Castle today is much smaller than it once was, this means that many other remains may be hidden beneath the city.'
The discovery of the tunnels highlights the potential that there are still undiscovered historical artifacts and structures beneath Milan's historical sites.
