A Milano dietro a Palazzo Citterio c’è un bellissimo giardino e un bistrot aperto a tutti dove pranzare e cenare
Palazzo Citterio in Milan is reopening its lush courtyard garden as Citterio Garden for summer 2026, starting May 27, with extended hours from 9 AM to 10 PM. The garden bistro, adjacent to the Orto Botanico di Brera, introduces a partnership with St-Germain liqueur, transforming into a "Giardino St-Germain" with signature cocktails. A major new collaboration brings Michelin-starred chef Claudio Sadler to craft an elevated Italian menu, managed by AFM Banqueting under the Grande Brera institution. The museum also announces summer exhibitions, including a show on Giovanni Agostino da Lodi and neoclassical displays featuring the Canova collection from Banca Ifis and the Sommariva miniature collection.
This matters because it reflects the ongoing revitalization of Milan's cultural district, blending high-end gastronomy with museum programming to attract broader audiences. The integration of a starred chef and luxury brand partnership signals a trend where art institutions leverage hospitality to enhance visitor experience and generate revenue. The accompanying exhibitions underscore Brera's commitment to showcasing both Renaissance masters and neoclassical treasures, reinforcing its role as a key cultural destination in Italy.
