When visiting Milan there are some things to keep in mind. The Duomo has a strict dress code (chest / shoulders must be covered & shorts / dresses must extend below the knees). The Duomo rooftop is a must-visit. Binoculars and opera glasses come in handy in Milan. Also helpful is bug spray, as mosquitos are known to appear near Milan’s two canals. Milan accommodations are some of Italy’s best. Before we get to Milan accommodations, let’s take a look at some more background information on the area to help you along the way.

 

 

Present-day Milan was founded as Medhelanon by the Celtic tribe Insubres sometime around 590 BC. Roman historian Titus Livius reported that the Gallic king Ambicatus sent his nephews Bellovesus and Segovesus, along with a party drawn from various Gaulish tribes, to settle new lands due to overpopulation in the homeland. Bellovesus and Segovesus founded a settlement in northern Italy during the reign of Rome’s fifth king, Tarquinius Priscus (616-579 BC), or “Tarquin the Elder”. Developed in a wooded sanctuary in the shape of an ellipse with a central clearing, Medhelanon aligned with precise astronomical points. The sanctuary, located near present-day Piazza della Scala, became a gathering place for religious celebrations. Modern thoroughfares and squares, such as Corso Vittorio Emanuele, Via Broletto, Piazza del Duomo and Piazza Cordusio, were implemented along these once-Medhelanon paths. Medhelanon became a true village about two centuries after the Celtic sanctuary’s creation, when residential settlements and a military center were built. Just south of the sanctuary, the first homes were built near the modern Royal Palace of Milan. A temple to the goddess Belisama near the modern Milan Cathedral, followed by a fortified building with a defensive moat near present-day Piazza San Sepolcro, were constructed around this time. In 222 BC the Romans, led by Roman general Gnaeus Cornelius Scipio Calvus, captured the settlement from the Insubres. The Romans, having conquered the entire region that spanned northern Italy, named the new province Cisalpine Gaul, or “Gaul this side of the Alps”. Medhelanon thus was Latinized to Mediolanum, or “middle plain”. (Interestingly, removing the letters “ed o um” from Mediolanum spells Milan. Edoum, or Edom, was an ancient kingdom that included Jerusalem, and too would receive Roman conquests). Mediolanum was elevated to municipium (town / city) status circa 49 BC. In 286 AD, Emperor Diocletian “Jovius” moved the Western Roman Empire’s capital from Rome to Mediolanum. Emperor Constantine I “The Great”, in 313, and Balkans Emperor Licinius met in Mediolanum to implement the Edict of Milan, which was an agreement to treat Christians within the Roman Empire benevolently. Mediolanum was home to Roman Italy’s third-largest amphitheater during the Augustan age. Emperor Maximian built a large circus, baths and a complex of imperial palaces in the city. Remains of Roman walls can still be observed at Milan’s present-day Archaeological Museum. Mediolanum was besieged by the Germanic Visigoths in 402 and by the Hun Attila in 452. In 539, the Gothic War between the Byzantine Empire and the Ostrogoths resulted in a Byzantine victory, and Sicily, the Italian peninsula and Dalmatia (modern-day Croatia and Montenegro) being ceded to the Byzantines. The Germanic Lombards, having conquered most of the Italian peninsula, took Ticinum (present-day Pavia – 22 miles south of Milan) as their capital circa 572. The Lombards had overpowered a small Byzantine garrison that had been left in Milan. Thereafter, Lombardian archbishops were tasked with governing early-medieval Milan. In 774, however, Milan surrendered to the Frank king Charlemagne. City-states emerged in northern Italy during the 11th century. Originally designed to oppose the Holy Roman Emperors, the city states would later turn against one another. Frederick I Barbarossa, embarrassed by the Milanese, who had captured Barbarossa’s wife Empress Beatrice and forced her to ride a donkey backward through the city, destroyed much of Milan in 1162. A part of the 1183 Peace of Constance granted the Milanese full possession of former and certain then-present lands. Gian Galeazzo Visconti became Milan’s first Duke in 1395. In 1447, Duke Filippo Maria Visconti died without an heir, and the Golden Ambrosian Republic was established, albeit for only a short time. Francesco I of the House of Sforza conquered the Ambrosian Republic city of Milan in 1450, and thereafter the city became one of Renaissance Italy’s most important. Mulberry cultivation and silk processing were introduced during this time of prosperity. Storza Castle, previously known as Porta Giovia Castle, was re-adapted and enlarged by the Sforza family, who also completed the Ospedale Maggiore hospital, and attracted Leonardo da Vinci and architect / painter Donato Bramante. Da Vinci improved Milan’s navigli canal system and painted The Last Supper, while Bramante worked on the Santa Maria presso San Satiro church, the Basilica of Sant’Ambrogio and Santa Maria delle Grazie, which now houses The Last Supper mural. Bramante introduced Renaissance architecture to Milan, which was deep-rooted in Gothic architecture. The Italian Wars (1494-1559), fought largely between Valois France and the Holy Roman Empire / Spain, resulted in the Peace of Cateau-Cambrésis, a part of which granted Habsburg Spain sovereignty over the Duchy of Milan. From 1629 to 1631, the Great Plague of Milan took an estimated 60,000 lives, which represented nearly half of the city’s population. With Charles II’s death in 1700, the Spanish-Habsburg line was extinguished. Subsequently, the War of the Spanish Succession between Pro-Bourbon Spain and Pro-Habsburg Spain resulted in the Treaties of Utrecht, Rastatt, and Baden, with Bourbon Spain ceding the Duchy of Milan to the Austrian Habsburgs. In 1796, Napoleon invaded Italy, and Milan was declared capital of the Cisalpine Republic. Napoleon later declared Milan capital of the Kingdom of Italy and was crowned King of Italy in the city’s cathedral. The Congress of Vienna returned Lombardy and Milan to Austrian control in 1815 following Napoleon’s departure from northern Italy. The “Five Days”, a precursor to the First Italian War of Independence, began in Milan on March 18, 1848, when the entire city, along with the archbishop and 100 priests, successfully revolted against Austrian general Joseph Radetzky, forcing him to withdraw temporarily from the city. The Piedmontese army, which had been sent to support the revolt, however, was subsequently defeated by the Austrians at the Battle of Custoza. Austria regained control of northern Italy for about the next ten years. Following the 1859 Battle of Solferino, which saw France and Italy defeat Austria, Milan and the rest of Lombardy were incorporated into Piedmont-Sardini. Italian statelets were annexed and the Kingdom of Italy formed on March 17, 1861. In the new Kingdom, Milan became a central northern-Italy rail hub. Milan and Venice became major stops for the Orient Express long-distance, luxury passenger train beginning in 1919. Steel, textiles and banking allowed Milan to grow into a financial center around this time. Benito Mussolini began his political and journalistic careers in Milan. Mussolini’s Blackshirts rallied for the first time at Piazza San Sepolcro. Mussolini launched his March on Rome on October 28, 1922. Allied bombings hit Milan’s large industrial and transport facilities heavily during World War II. On April 28, 1945, Mussolini was executed and later hanged and exposed in Milan’s Piazzale Loreto. Following the Second World War, Milan experienced a boom followed by the late-1960s / early-70s “Years of Lead”, a period of street violence, labor strikes and social upheaval. During the 1980s, fashion, tourism and the stock exchange were all positives, though again followed by a downturn by way of political / business corruption, or Tangentopoli, in the 1990s. Milan hosted the World Expo in 2015, and will play host to the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Today, Milan is home to around 1.4 million “Milanese”, while the greater metropolitan area totals over 6 million. Italy’s second-most populous city behind Rome, Milan is comprised of nearly 20% foreign residents. Most Milanese identify as Catholic, with about 5 million Catholics in the Archdiocese of Milan (Milan, Monza, Lecco, Varese) using the Latin liturgical Ambrosian Rite, which varies slightly from the Roman Rite. Historical buildings are not all that Milan has to offer. A financial center, the city is home to the Borsa Italiana stock exchange. As Italian cities go, Milan leads in high-rise architecture. 16 buildings reach at least 328 feet in height, with 5 rising above 492 feet. Italy’s tallest building, the UniCredit Tower, stands at 714 feet (spire included). Not far below, the Allianz Tower’s 50 floors reach 686 feet, which is the city’s tallest by roof height. Milan’s economy is third-largest in Europe behind Paris and Madrid. The Fashion Capital of the world has been home to a number of top fashion designers to include Miuccia Prada, Gianni Versace, Giorgio Armani, Domenico Dolce, Stefano Gabbana and Gianfranco Ferré. Of Milan’s approximate 8.5 million annual visitors, around 30,000 attend Milan Fashion Week. Americans are more prone to visit on business, while Asians tend to visit more for leisure. Home to a humid subtropical climate, Milan experiences hot, humid summers and cold, foggy winters. July highs average around 87 °F, while Januarys average around 45 °F. On average, snowfall occurs about 7 days per year. Additional points of interest are Porta Nuova (shopping / park district) and Milano Centrale (railway station). Local foods include veal, pork ribs, risotto alla Milanese, polenta, panzerottia (turnover) and gorgonzola. Apertivo is a common pre-dinner drink. Also popular are white wine, signature cocktails and craft beer. With some background information on the area, we’re ready for Milan accommodations that will help make for an outstanding trip.
