Pioltello, Municipality in Metropolitan City of Milan, Italy
Pioltello is a municipality in the Metropolitan City of Milan that spans approximately 13 square kilometers between two provincial roads. It sits about 7 kilometers northeast of Milan and forms part of the larger urban area surrounding the city.
People settled here as far back as 300 AD, and the first written records mention the place in 1020. This connection to both ancient and medieval times gives the area a long-standing presence in the region's history.
The Alessandro Manzoni Municipal Library, the Civic School of Music, and UCI Cinemas are where locals and visitors gather together. These venues shape daily life and create a social hub for the area.
Regular bus and train services connect the place well to Milan and surrounding municipalities, making commutes straightforward. It helps to check the transit routes before visiting, especially if arriving by public transport.
Three large parks—Parco delle Cascine, Trenzanesio Park, and Bosco della Besozza—have earned the place a reputation for green space. These areas offer locals and visitors room to walk and rest within an urban setting.
