Milan, Porta Garibaldi station, view from Carlo Farini Bridge (TGV)


Milano Porta Garibaldi is the second major railway station in the Italian city of Milan, located just to the north of the neighbourhood known as Porta Garibaldi. Garibaldi station was built in 1961 near three former stations called Porta Nuova, opened between 1840 (Milan’s first station on the Milan–Monza railway) and 1931. The latter station was also called the “Varesine” station" (after Varese) and was the terminus of lines to Gallarate, Novara and Varese. The construction of the station was part of an ambitious project for the development of a business centre, which remains largely uncompleted. In 1966 it was connected via the Garibaldi Tunnel to Mirabello junction and connected to the line to Monza (at Greco Pirelli station) and the belt line (at Lambrate station). The station thus became accessible from all the regional lines of Ferrovie dello Stato (FS).
