The Sanctuary of the Blessed Virgin of Campaccio (also known as Sanctuary of the Madonna of Ardena or Madonna del Latte) is a Marian place of worship located in Ardena, a hamlet of Brusimpiano (Varese), near Lake Ceresio. Dating back to the early 17th century, the sanctuary owes its name to the legend of the discovery of a sacred image: a fresco of the Madonna and Child that was found twice in the locality called "Campaccio", interpreted by popular devotion as the Virgin's desire to have a church dedicated in that precise spot.

Villa Clerici on the Naviglio Grande (also known as Palazzo Clerici or Il Castelletto) is one of the most majestic and extensive noble villas located along the Naviglio Grande canal. It stands in Castelletto di Cuggiono, in the province of Milan, perched on a natural spur overlooking a bend in the canal. It stands on the remains of an ancient medieval fortress from the 10th century, transformed in the 16th century into a residence of the Crivelli family. In 1658, the property passed to the wealthy Clerici family of bankers and merchants. The Clerici invested enormous fortunes in the complex. They wanted the facade to have 365 windows (one for each day of the year) and 12 balconies (like the months) to flaunt their wealth in front of the local nobility. In the 19th century, due to the family's economic collapse, the structure was sold and adapted first into a spinning mill and weaving factory, entering a long period of semi-abandonment. In 2026, an important private recovery project was initiated.
