Description
In the heart of the recently restored ancient village of Oreno, situated between the two main squares of the town, stands the Foresteria Lombarda Borromeo. This establishment has been created from a wing of the historic dairy court ("Curt del lacè"), surrounded by countryside preserved in its original state by the nearby Parco della Cavallera, located at the gates of Monza and Milan.
Just a few meters away from the Foresteria Lombarda Borromeo is the 18th-century Villa Gallarati Scotti, nestled within a beautiful park that also encompasses the 17th-century Villa Borromeo and the adjoining Casino di Caccia, which is set in a picturesque "Corte Rustica" from the 1400s. It is within this courtyard that one can find the famous Stanza degli affreschi, the frescoes of which have inspired the colors and upholstery of every room in the guesthouse.
These sites offer a glimpse into the past, evoking the historical and artistic imagination of the era of the Zavattari (known for the Chapel of Queen Theodolinda in the Monza Cathedral) and the time when Gian Giacomo Caprotti, known as il Salaino, mysteriously made his way from Oreno to Milan to become one of Leonardo's favored students in the 15th century.

Area city center
A thousand years earlier, the village of Oreno, adjacent to the larger Vicus Mercati (Vimercate) yet possessing its own distinct identity, developed around an ancient Augustinian convent. This convent likely had its entrance in the small tower that still houses a dovecote, located within the Rustic Court, right next to the aforementioned frescoed room. It is rare to find a complete cycle of frescoes in good condition within an entire room, as the critical spirit typical of the Lombardy region has often led to the destruction and total reconstruction of buildings. Here, a combination of fate, the transfer of ownership of the Court from the Della Padella family to the D’Adda family, and later in the 17th century to the Borromeo family, along with the use of purifying lime, resulted in the realization in 1927 of the significance of this place, allowing for its preservation and the maintenance of its uniqueness.
