Brera is a quarter of Milan, located a 10-minute walk from the Duomo. The name comes from the medieval Italian word "braida" or "brera", which goes back to the Lombard "brayda", which means "land cleared of trees". Around the year 900, the Brera district was located directly outside the city walls of Milan. The quarter is clearly defined by the streets of Pontaccio, Fatebenefratelli, Dei Giardini, Monte di Pieta, Ponte Vetero and Mercato. This quarter is home to the Brera Academy of fine arts and the Brera Pinacoteca (an art gallery of 38 rooms), which has created a kind of Bohemian atmosphere, which is why the Brera quarter is sometimes called the "Montmartre of Milan".
The Academy and Pinacoteca are located in the main historical building of the district — the Palazzo Brera, where the astronomical Observatory is located, and near the building — the main Botanical garden of Milan. Brera is one of the most popular areas of Milan's nightlife. First of all, it is worth noting that Brera is the Kingdom of pedestrians: entry is allowed only for those who live here.
