“Is that all there is to it?” a voice asked. Yes, Garbana is a small, unassuming village on the outskirts of Milan. Don’t let its size fool you though. Garbana has a rich history that stretches back to ancient times. Garbana was likely settled by Celtic tribes before the Roman conquest of the region in 222 BC. The Romans incorporated Garbana into their vast empire. They undoubtedly left their mark on the landscape. The village probably served as a vital agricultural center, supplying food to the growing city of Mediolanum, as the Romans called Milan. Life in Roman Garbana likely revolved around farming, trade and the rhythms of the seasons. Following the fall of the Roman Empire, Garbana, like much of northern Italy, witnessed the arrival of new peoples, including the Lombards. Throughout the Middle Ages, Garbana continued to be an important agricultural community. It likely played a role in the complex power struggles between local lords, the Holy Roman Empire and the rising independent cities of Lombardy like Milan. Over the centuries, Garbana has evolved from a humble village into a suburban community. It’s now part of the sprawling Milan metropolitan area. Garbana retains its charm and a sense of history despite its modern surroundings.
