GIARDINO DELL'ARCADIA
Milan

The Arcadia Garden is a historical garden, hitherto unpublished to the public, located in the Porta Romana area, almost 3340 sqm of green space among century-old trees and ancient statues.

The private historical access located at the end of Via Marchiondi opens directly onto the large green space, while the second access from Corso di Porta Romana 78 overlooks the wide pathway that leads inside the Garden.

The Arcadia Garden was part of the palace built by Count Carlo Pertusati, a member and later president of the Milanese Senate. It was mainly the members of the Accademia dell’Arcadia, founded in 1704, who used to meet in this green space to recite their poems.

The Pertusati family, owners of the historical palace, kept alive the custom of social and intellectual events in the Garden, a custom that is still maintained today in a more modern key. The Arcadia Garden is in fact the ideal setting for photo shoots, fashion shows, cocktails and cultural events.
