background
Milan is one of the most historic cities in Italy. Today's financial metropolis of Italy already belonged in the Middle Ages and in the early modern period, next to Venice and Florence, one of the most important trading and banking centers south of the Alps. In addition, Milan is a city of culture and fashion of international standing.
Ancient and Middle Ages
Since the Roman Empire, every epoch has left its structural traces in the urban area. The first settlement at this point was 400 BC. Founded by a Celtic tribe. Since then, the place has been inhabited continuously. 222 BC He was from the Romans conquered which gave it the Latin name Mediolanum gave, which means "in the middle of the plane". In the late phase of the Roman Empire, in 286 AD, under Emperor Diocletian, it even became the capital of the Western Roman Empire. In the Milan Edict of Tolerance of 313, the emperors Constantine and Licinius assured Christians freedom of belief. Milan became one of the most important centers of the early Christianity in Italy. During the migration period, the city was overrun and destroyed by various tribal associations, but was then rebuilt. Phases under Lombard and Frankish rule followed.
During the war of the Staufer Emperor Friedrich I Barbarossa against the Lombard cities, Milan was again heavily destroyed in 1162. Nevertheless, the city took on a leading role in the subsequent period Lombard League of Cities (Lega Lombarda), which in 1183 finally gained extensive autonomy from the Roman-German emperors. Like many other important cities in northern and central Italy, the city-state of Milan became an aristocratic republic in which the della Torre family first dominated, and then the Visconti from the late 13th century. The Visconti converted their rule into a hereditary duchy in 1395. This passed to the Sforza family in 1450.
Renaissance and modern times
_-_The_Last_Supper_(1495-1498).jpg/220px-Leonardo_da_Vinci_(1452-1519)_-_The_Last_Supper_(1495-1498).jpg)
Under the influence of the Dukes of Milan, the city developed into a nucleus of the Italians Renaissance. The artist Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519), who is considered the epitome of the universal genius, worked here for a total of 25 years of his life. Some of his few surviving works are in the collections of various Milanese museums. His mural “The Last Supper” in the monastery Santa Maria delle Grazie is now part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site.
At the same time, Milan was a pioneer of the European Banking. So it happens that terms like Lombard loan and numerous Italian loan words from the banking and finance sector (e.g. bankruptcy, balance sheet, account) also entered the German vocabulary. Today Milan is the seat of the Borsa Italiana, the only stock exchange in Italy, as well as the largest Italian banking group Unicredit
From the 16th to the 18th centuries, Milan - like Lombardy as a whole - was owned by the Habsburgs until it was conquered by Napoleon in 1796. After its disempowerment, it was again awarded to Austria in the Congress of Vienna in 1815 as part of the Lombardy-Venetian Kingdom. In the late 18th and 19th centuries, Milan was a far-reaching cultural center, especially in the Opera world. Mozart, Salieri, Rossini, Donizetti and above all Verdi celebrated their premieres at the Ducal Theater in Milan and the Teatro della Scala, founded in 1776. Milan's Scala is still one of the most important opera houses in the world.
The city came to the Kingdom of Italy only after the Austrian defeat in the Battle of Solferino in 1859 as part of the national unification of Italy (Risorgimento). Milan was the main focus of the industrialization in Italy. During this time the population grew rapidly. In 1914 Milan was one of the first cities to have a socialist mayor. The city was also the founding site of the fascist organization in 1919 Fascio di Combattimento and in 1922 the starting point for Benito Mussolini's “March on Rome”. The rule of the fascist dictator began and ended in Milan: after his shooting by partisans at the end of April 1945, the bodies of Mussolini and other leading fascists were publicly exhibited in Milan's Piazzale Loreto.
Fashion city of Milan
The city's fashion and textile industries are world-class. Terms like Milanese design and Milanese chic are considered trademarks for goods from the high-price segment. The internationally known fashion companies Prada, Trussardi, Valentino, Giorgio Armani, Versace and Dolce & Gabbana have their headquarters in Milan, as well as the world's largest eyewear manufacturer Luxottica. The Milan Fashion Weeks, which have been held since 1958 (Milano Moda or Milan Fashion Week; January and June for men’s fashion, February and September for women’s fashion) are among the leading fashion fairs in the world, alongside the London, New York and Paris Fashion Weeks.
From May 1 to October 31, 2015, Milan hosted the World exhibitionExpo 2015.

By bus
In the street
It is common for major Italian cities that the road traffic is an apparently uncontrolled chaos in which one “swims”. You should bring patience and increased concentration. In the so-called rush hour, there is usually nothing going on on the main roads - the city center in particular should then be avoided.
mobility
Milan has a well-developed metro network. An overview map of the metro lines can be found at Atm- Mi.it see. Trams and buses can also be used.
The day ticket for € 4.50, single trip € 1.50 is highly recommended. It is much faster than by car. If you drive out of the center (for example to the Milanofiori), there are day tickets for € 5.80 "U 1". It is checked sporadically! Almost every metro station has a newspaper kiosk, which makes it easier to buy the right ticket.
Ventotto: a legend on railsIt has been the workhorse in Milan tram traffic for over 80 years: the ATM series 1500, Italian license replicas of the American Peter Witt four-axle bogie wagons, popularly known as "Ventotti" after the year of delivery of the first car in 1928. 502 of these cars were built between 1928 and 1930, and over 100 of these historic vehicles are still in use today. These are the oldest tram vehicles in Europe that run on a regular basis.
Elsewhere you have to pay a lot of money for a trip in such a vehicle, because these are only used in museum operations or private special trips. In Milan, however, you can enjoy the driving experience of the 1930s with a normal ticket on lines 1, 5, 19, 23 and 33, as well as on line 2 as a booster. A must for rail enthusiasts, but also a great experience for non-rail freaks. Unfortunately, boarding is not barrier-free.

Work
security
Man muss in Mailand auf Taschendiebe achten, speziell in Menschenmengen und der U-Bahn. Vor dem Dom werden einem ständig Taubenfutter oder Armbänder angeboten, die Überraschung kommt, wenn man das Geschenk annimmt. Auch wird an den Ticketautomaten in den U-Bahnhöfen Hilfe mit ´aufgehaltener Hand´ angeboten.
health
In den Sommermonaten warten zwei Gefahren auf den Besucher der Stadt: In den Sonnenstunden gibt es das Risiko einen Sonnenbrand zu bekommen. Die Supermärkte bieten meist nur Sonnencremes bis Sonnenschutzfaktor 20 an. Daher muss man auf Drogerien oder Apotheken ausweichen oder am besten die Sonnencreme von zu Hause mitbringen.
Die zweite Gefahr sind die zahlreichen Mücken, die sich in den Abendstunden gleichermaßen auf Einheimische und Touristen stürzen. Daher sollte man sich vor dem abendlichen Spaziergang oder beim Sitzen in einem Restaurant mit einem Repellent (z. B. Autan oder NoBite) vor diesen Insekten schützen.
Practical advice
trips
Mit dem Zug ist man schnell und günstig am Lake Como, Garda lake and Lake Maggiore. Auch Turin ist nur etwa 1,5 Stunden entfernt. Auch das Städtchen Bergamo, in den Bergen gelegen, ist hübsch und eignet sich um den Mailänder Trubel zu entkommen.
