Legnano is a town of 60,000 inhabitants in the metropolitan city of Milan with ancient origins, crossed by the Olona river. A curiosity: together with Rome, it's the only city mentioned in the national hymn, because of the Battle of Legnano that took place in 1176.
Saronno is a town of 40,000 inhabitants located in the province of Varese, and it's the most densely populated in the province. Thanks to the Church of the Madonna dei Miracoli, the town has always been a place of great interest for pilgrims from all over Italy.
Parabiago has always been named 'the city of footwear', thanks to the numerous shoe industries that established themselves in the area between the 1970s and 1990s, giving rise to the main international footwear hub in northern Italy. Some of the world's most famous shoes are made here: Louboutin, Chanel and Fratelli Rossetti, to name but a few.
Culture, services and transport
Legnano and Saronno are both served by Trenord railway lines and several bus lines, as are most of the adjacent municipalities. In addition, Legnano has an exit on the Autostrada dei Laghi motorway, it's crossed by two state roads and by the SP12 provincial road. Thanks to this efficient transport network, it is possible to reach metropolises such as Milan or Como in a short time from both towns.
We are talking about an area extremely rich in culture, thanks first and foremost to the historical tradition of the Palio di Legnano, which takes place every year on the last Sunday in May. Tat day, the eight contradas (La Flora, Legnarello, San Bernardino, San Domenico, San Magno, San Martino, Sant'Ambrogio and Sant'Erasmo) parade through the streets of the city in historical costume to reach the city stadium where the race with jockeys and horses takes place.
Both Legnano and Saronno boast a high quality education system (to which the renowned Cattaneo-LIUC University contributes), an excellent healthcare system, a comprehensive network of shops and shopping centres, important theatres with various programmes and distinguished guests.
