Strolling through Milan's southeastern agricultural park

Automatically translated

The history of these places is full of great events involving the noble families who ruled it.

 

The main war conflicts of Milanese history from Frederick Barbarossa to the Italian Risorgimento took place on this territory. Great impetus was given by the work of the Cistercian monks who reclaimed much of this land from the 13th-14th centuries. They introduced and implemented the irrigation system still largely visible today, which made the Milanese plain one of the richest and most productive places in Italy.

Devoting a day to the South Milan Agricultural Park , one can realize what the essence of this vast area is. Farmsteads, farmhouses, historic building complexes, the Navigli canals--a varied agricultural and historical picture.

A myriad of points equipped for recreation, culture and leisure, for walking, trekking, boating, cycling, wine and food; with restaurants, trattorias and monuments placed within a qualified metropolitan agricultural environment.
Take advantage of the heritage present within this protected agricultural area by identifying the four different purposes that gave rise to the Park: nature, landscape, history andagriculture.

Always take a good look around you: the uniqueness of this area will surprise you in every season, with visions, scents, colors and flavors that are always different and never the same.
