“Is that a bus stop way over there?” someone in our group murmurs. That’s a common question when we arrive at Cascina Martinetta. This charming farmhouse, while seemingly in the middle of nowhere now, sits patiently as the city of Milan expands around it. You see, Cascina Martinetta is not just an old building. It’s a survivor. It has stood here watching for centuries, witnessing the transformation of the surrounding landscape from rural farmland to a bustling urban environment. The nearest bus stop, Palestro, is a good hour’s walk away. That’s almost 5 kilometers! Can you imagine that journey in the midday sun? Thankfully, we have it easy today. While we enjoy the peaceful ambiance of Cascina Martinetta, let’s appreciate its resilience. It reminds us that amidst the constant change of city life, some things endure, offering a tangible link to the past.
