Milan has a temperate, humid climate. Milan is one of the most foggy cities in Europe. In the summer, July and August are the hottest months, in May and October there is a lot of rainfall.

Milan is believed to be around 600 BC. to have been founded by northern Italian Celts, the Insubres, whose capital it was. In 222 BC. the Romans took it. In 313 Emperor Constantine proclaimed the Edict of Milan. Under the Roman Emperor Theodosius I, Milan was the capital of the Western Roman Empire for some time. In 452, Milan was sacked by Attila and his Huns. In the late 5th century, the invaded Ostrogoths established their empire in the region. In 568 the Lombards did the same. In the 11th century, Milan led other cities to semi-independence from the Holy Roman Empire. During the outbreak of the 'Black Death' (which killed one third of the population of Europe), houses infested with the plague were bricked up together with the inhabitants. As a result, Milan is the only city in Italy and its surroundings that has been spared the plague. During the Renaissance, Milan was ruled by dukes of the Sforza and Visconti families, who employed artists such as Leonardo da Vinci and Bramante. In 1500 the French under Louis XII took the city. It was then dominated by Spain and later Austria. After the Napoleonic era, Milan became one of the main centers of Italian nationalism. In 1859 the Piedmontese liberated Lombardy with the help of the French. Two years later, the kingdom of Italy was a fact. Milan was bombed several times during World War II. In 1943 Milan was occupied by the Germans. The city was liberated by Italian partisans in April 1945, before the Allies reached it.

In the 20th century, thousands of immigrants from the poor south of Italy settled in Milan in search of a better future. This gave Milan a multicultural character.

Drinking coffee, you are in Italy after all. However, the cafes and terraces in the center are quite pricey. But at the beautiful department store La Rinascente, located to the left of the Duomo, in the basement you will find a coffee shop with espresso or bottles of San Pellegrino water for €1.00 each. Cheap, tasty and you can sit by it for a while.

  • Excursies zonder auto: je hebt geen auto nodig om te ontsnappen aan werk, verkeer, file's en de luchtvervuiling 's winters en de warmte 's zomers, vanaf de stad Milaan naar de meren, bergen en kastelen en goed eten, neem gewoon de trein en soms de boot.
  • Fietsuitstappen: Vertrek vanaf het 24 mei plein (Piazza XXIV Maggio), daar is een uitstekend en zeer lang fietspad aan de rechterkant van het kanaal. Let op om de Naviglio Grande (in westelijke richting op noordelijke oever van het kanaal) en volg het zo lang als je wil. Na enkele kilometers zal je de mooie Chiesetta di San Cristoforo zien, een populaire plaats om te trouwen. Als je een goede conditie hebt, ga dan verder naar het platteland. Ongeveer 10 km verder vindt je Gaggiano, een zeer mooi en klein dorpje en 20 km verder Abbitegrasso. Als je nog steeds zin hebt, volg dan het kanaal en je bereikt Robecco sul Naviglio.
