That's where you can see the architecture of the XIII, XIV and XV centuries! Perhaps that's why the spirit of ancient Italy still reigns here, attracting travelers.

The center of Milan during middle age. Center of commerces as you can guess from streets names: via Orefici (goldsmith), via Spadari (sword)... Palazzo della Ragione was home of Teresian Land Registry

It was the place where the main market was placed a beautiful corner hidden beside Duomo with lots of secrets held in the marketplace columns :)
