Palazzina Liberty

Small music pavilion

When the huge fruit and vegetable market between Via Cadore and Corso XXII Marzo was demolished and turned into a park after WW2, the building known as Palazzina Liberty was left untouched.

Designed by Migliorini in 1908 and completed in 1910 as a refreshment area for the market, the slender building now stands in the middle of the park. Its sinuous ceramic decorations and floral reliefs that surround the main frontages and glassed exhedras of the sides are a splendid example of Milanese Art Nouveau.

During the 1960's, it was used by Dario Fo and his troupe as a setting for their productions; since the 1980's it has become the home of the Civica Orchestra dei Fiati and a setting for concerts and events.
