The list of historic stores in Lombardy is being enriched each year with new awards, rewarding the history and tradition of these businesses.

With the latest recognitions, the total number of signs with more than 40 years of history behind them has reached almost 4,000. Within that list, which was desired and promoted by the Region of Lombardy, are stores, historic establishments and artisan workshops.

Each place has its own stories to tell, traditions, habits and even food customs, all to be discovered and ... tasted!

In order to understand and appreciate the true nature of an area, it is therefore important to also get to know the flavors and culinary traditions that belong to it, through a fascinating visit to the historic stores and establishments, where you can breathe in an atmosphere of yesteryear.

In this case, we offer a selection of the historical activities related to the food and wine sector for the Milan area.
