The bistrot of the Pont de Ferr is an excellent alternative to the more expensive next door restaurant that runs it. Fine food for demanding palates.

Getting Around

The closest bike parking is just behind the corner, behind the roundabout, at the far end of Via Pasquale Paoli (you can see them from the balcony). Very easy and cheap, one of the best ways to get to know MIlan.

Once you walk out of this convenient garage, in order to reach the apartment, don't follow your GPS! Go right and across the small garden go into VIA MAGOLFA. Turn left and then right in VIA GIOVANNI SEGANTINI. At the roundabout take the short VIA PASQUALE PAOLI which ends on the canal. On the right corner is the building with the front door on RIPA DI PORTA TICINESE. The total walk shouldn't take you more than 4 minutes.

Arts & Culture

A beautiful church, founded in the 4th century by Eustorgy I, the bishop of Milan to whom is attributed the transfer of the relics of the Magi from Constantinople to the city in 344. Part of the relics are still kept inside the church nowdays. In 1764, when an ancient pillar was removed, a Christian burial was discovered, housing coins of emperor Constans, the son of Constantine the Great. Behind the apse is the most striking feature of the church, the “Portinari Chapel” (1462–1468), one of the most celebrated examples of Renaissance art in Lombardy. It has frescoes by Vincenzo Foppa and a marble sepulchre by Giovanni di Balduccio, a 14th-century pupil of Giovanni Pisano.

One of the oldest churches in Milan. It’s nearby the city park called Parco delle Basiliche (Basilicas’ Park), which includes both the Basilica of San Lorenzo and the Basilica of Sant’Eustorgio, as well as the Roman “Colonne di San Lorenzo”, one of the few remains of the Roman “Mediolanum”, dating from the 3rd century AD and probably belonging to the large baths built by the emperor Maximian. They were carried in the current place when the basilica construction was finished. Once inside don’t miss the famous Cappella di Sant’Aquilino.
