Apartments Milan S. Ambrogio - Cattolica

For those seeking accommodation in Milan, the Sant’Ambrogio - Università Cattolica area is ideal for businessmen or tourists wishing to stay in the heart of the city.
The area near the Basilica di Sant’Ambrogio and the Università del Sacro Cuore is one of the most interesting areas from a cultural and touristic point of view. Sant’Ambrogio was built between 379 and 386 A.D. following the request of the Bishop of Milan Ambrogio, now patron of the city, in an area where the Catholic martyrs were buried after having died from the Roman persecutions. The same Ambrogio wanted the relics of the martyrs San Satiro, Vittore, Nabore, Vitale, Santi Gervasio and Protasio, Felice and Valeria to be placed there. Because of this, the first name given to the basilica was Basilica Martyrum (Martyrs Basilica). After having undergone continuous changes in the course of the ninth century, the basilica took its final appearance in 1099 when it was radically reconstructed according to Romanesque architecture. A few steps away, one can find the Catholic University, one of the largest universities in the city, and the young atmosphere around it has encouraged many bars, pubs and restaurants to open in the area. The National Science and Technology museum Leonardo Da Vinci is also to be found in this area, and is one of the best in Europe. Well served by all means of public transport, one can find a number of tram, bus and metro stops (green line S. Ambrogio and Cadorna, red line Conciliazione and Cadorna) in this area, enabling easy access to almost every area in the city, as well as the Cadorna FN railway station, from which trains leave to Malpensa airport.
