Palazzo Cusani

Palazzo Cusani has been defined the highest example of the milanese private housebuilding of the beginning of the 17th century.

The building, n. 13 - 15 of Brera street, was built over an ancient property of the 16th   century and was later on enlarged, renewed and redecorated during the whole century.

The main cortile of honour, built during the 16th century, keeps its tipical frame, with the two arcades with twin granite columns.

Presently the building can not be visited as it became the seat of the Third Army Corps.
