Colonne di San Lorenzo
The Colonne di San Lorenzo is one of Milan’s most evocative ancient landmarks, standing opposite the Basilica of San Lorenzo in the heart of the city. This striking colonnade of sixteen tall Corinthian columns dates back to the 2nd or 3rd century AD and was relocated to its current position in the 4th century. Originally part of a Roman temple or public bathhouseWikipedia+1, the columns now frame a lively square where history and modern life meet. Their weathered marble and classical proportions offer a rare glimpse into ancient Mediolanum, making the site a favourite gathering place for locals and visitors. By day, the area invites quiet reflection on Milan’s Roman past; by night, it becomes a vibrant social hub, blending archaeology with contemporary urban culture.
Milan ItalyColonne di San Lorenzo, a row of sixteen ancient Roman Corinthian columns dating to the 2nd-4th centuries, stands in central Milan directly in front of the Basilica di San Lorenzo Maggiore on Corso di Porta Ticinese in the vibrant Porta Ticinese district. The columns form a historic colonnade in a pedestrian piazza overlooked by a statue of Emperor Constantine, marking remnants of Roman Mediolanum near the medieval Porta Ticinese gate. Nearby, Parco Giovanni Paolo II (Basilicas Park) offers green space behind the basilica, while the lively Navigli canal district with bars, restaurants, and aperitivo spots lies just a short walk along Corso di Porta Ticinese.
