Andrea Rizzoli founded the facility in 1963 to create a modern training base for AC Milan. Since its opening, it has evolved into a benchmark facility for professional football preparation.
The name reflects founder Andrea Rizzoli's legacy, and the facility remains the daily hub where players and coaching staff shape the identity of AC Milan through their work.
The complex is located away from urban centers and requires advance planning for access, as public transportation options are limited to the area. Visitors should arrange their travel beforehand using private transportation.
