Antica Osteria Moirago

RESTAURANT

The Antica Osteria Moirago was built in 1250. It was ceded by the Duchy to the Caimi family in 1469, one of the most ancient noble families in Milan. In 1478 it became an inn and the first letting contract is still in existence to this day, showing an unusual method of payment: every six months, using farmyard animals. Following the widening of the Post Road to Pavia, nowadays the “Giovi” state highway no.35,

a part of the building was demolished along with two terracotta windows topped by an ogival arch and featuring a window sill of considerable architectural merit.
There is only one remaining on one side of the inn. The portico, with four granite columns dating back to the 1300’s, lends a picturesque quality to the building.
