History
The name "Crescenzago" is supposedly of
latin Crescentii ager ("Crescentius' field"). In the Middle Ages it mostly consisted in the abbey of Santa Maria Rossa (founded in 1140).[1] It was also the main access point to Milan for travellers coming from Venice
. In the 18th Century, several large villas were built in Crescenzago to serve as country residences for rich Milanese families.
Crescenzago was an independent comune until 1923, when it became part of Milan.
