Milan (MI)
The “first aperitif”
The rite of the aperitif was invented in the early twentieth century at the Caffè Camparino in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in Milan.
The most vandalised
Since 1867, Caffè Camparino in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in Milan has recorded a total of 87 instances of broken windows caused by political demonstrators who were rampaging under the arcades of Piazza del Duomo and in the Galleria.
The Most Art Nouveau
Undulating, dynamic, inspired by nature, beautiful: whether from their original construction or following renovations in the late 19th century, over seventy historic venues in Italy embraced the Art Nouveau style. Here they are, brought together in an ideal itinerary to be explored for the pleasure of a “floral stop.” The research was conducted for the 2013 edition and has become part of the historical and cultural heritage of the Guide and the Association of Historic Venues of Italy.
