In the year 2000, this part of the city was touched by the hand of modernity. In front of you is a monument called the Needle Thread and Knot. It has a lot of symbolism. The thread curving around the needle resembles a blue snake - depicted on the coat of arms of the Visconti clan - an old ducal clan that laid the foundation for Milanese statehood. The needle is a symbol of the diving and rising metro that permeates the entire city. Three colors of threads - three metro lines, each marked with its own color. The theme of cutting and sewing is a tribute to Milan's world-famous fashion and style, and the location of the monument tells us that we are close to the famous train station of the city, which we will talk about at the end of the walk.
This route is suitable for those who come to Milan for a day or for those who stay in the city. We will visit the Dome Square, get acquainted with the architecture of the town, and feel its spirit, born during the formation of independent Italy. We will walk along the quiet streets of the bohemian region of Brera and plunge into urban life in the Castello area. Stories, bars, restaurants, shops, and comfort will accompany us at every step.
