  • LEZIONE 9 – Dal Cordusio Al Castello Sforzesco (DIA 1)
    LEZIONE 9 – Dal Cordusio al Castello sforzesco (DIA 1) ( DIA 2) Il nuovo itinerario di Milano che iniziamo oggi parte da piazza Cordusio, prosegue per via Dante, per raggiungere infine il castello sforzesco con le sue gallerie d’arte. Usciti poi dal castello, inizieremo la visita del Parco Sempione, il più grande giardino pubblico all’interno delle mura spagnole, con l’acquario, l’Arena, l’arco della Pace, e il palazzo dell’Arte. Ritorneremo poi in via Dante attraverso via Boccaccio, la stazione delle Ferrovie Nord Milano, il teatro e il palazzo Dal Verme. Piazza Cordusio ( DIA 3) ) è una delle più importanti piazze milanesi, anche per funzione viabilistica e strategiche. È da sempre centro storico e nevralgico della città, di elevato rilievo storico e artistico. Crocicchio già in epoca imperiale, il Cordusio divenne importante con l’avvento dei Longobardi. Infatti, trent’anni dopo la distruzione di Milano (538-539) ad opera degli Ostrogoti, scende in Italia nel 569, il re dei Longobardi, Alboino. Da allora l’area divenne Langobardia, e in seguito Lombardia. Con la scomparsa di Alboino nel 572, la Provincia venne divisa fra i tre generali (che divennero duchi). Ad Albino toccò la “desolata Milano”. Il suo palazzo, che sorgeva nell’odierna piazza, era detto “De curte ducis” (o “Curia ducis“, ossia la corte dei duchi lombardi), da cui per corruzione “Cortedoxi“, quindi “Corduce” e infine “Corduso” o “Cordusio“. La corte ducale venne subito soppiantata dal nuovo palazzo del Broletto vecchio (Palazzo Reale) e il palazzo al Cordusio venne smembrato e probabilmente attraversato dalla contrada delle Galline.

  • Relocation Country Guide: ITALY
    Relocation Country Guide: ITALY September 2017 Relocation and International Assignment Trends and Practices Located in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea, Italy shares open land borders with France, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, San Marino and Vatican City. The country is renowned for its arts and cultural treasures, as well as beautiful landscapes and world-leading cuisine. It is becoming a more frequent destination for assignees and the high quality of life there, means it is a popular destination for expatriates. Input from Cartus Global Supply Chain and our Destination Services Providers on the ground in Italy points to several key areas of importance to the expat community. Of primary importance is looking for a rental property, finding a school, transportation, language, cultural issues and climate. These areas are all addressed, with best practice recommendations, to help guide relocation managers as they consider policies for their assignees. September 2017 Relocation Country Guide: ITALY RENTAL MARKET As rental properties are not typically viewed as investments, landlords tend not to devote time to maintaining them. Assignees should be made aware of this before a home search trip begins, as the standard of expatriate properties in Italy may be lower than elsewhere in Europe. The types of properties available – in terms of quality, size and price – depend considerably on the area in which the assignee is relocating. In more rural areas, prices may be lower, but so is availability. Whereas, there is more choice in major cities like Rome and Milan, but prices are higher. Although, in general, properties in Rome are of a lower quality than they are in other cities and there are also less fully furnished options in the capital.

Among the things we are missing the most in our cities during the lockdown, one in particular remains a universal essential need: moving around. Although not immediate, the gradual reopening of the city is getting closer and closer. We will soon be able to move around again and integrate physical activity into our daily routines. Thus, it is more and more urgent to find solutions to adapt the city - particularly infrastructure and public spaces - to the new social distancing measures needed to coexist with the virus. This is a seemingly obvious, but unprecedented issue. Compliance with such measures will not be easy, especially when it comes to managing people's movements in densely populated cities like Milan. But in the coming months, mobility will have to change in an effort to find a new balance that manages the movements of people and ensures their protection from the risk of infection.
