To endorse this hypotesis there are different elements: the presence of centuriations and the discovery, in the Middle Ages, of a Roman marble slab, now kept in the Archaeological Museum of Milan. The oldest documents so far discovered dates back to the 10th century. Arcore, in the Middle Ages, is under the control of the ''Pieve of Vimercate'', and is historically documented the presence of two monasteries, la Casa delle Umiliate in Sant'Apollinare and the Benedictine monastery of Saint Martin of Tours. By the 16th century, several noble lombard families (Casati, Durini, Giulini, Vismara, D'Adda, Barbò) begin to build many important villas, the ''ville di delizia'', including the Villa Borromeo d'Adda, the Villa la Cazzola and the Villa San Martino (the current residence of Silvio Berlusconi). After the Italian unification (1861), through the construction of the Arcore's railway station and the establishment of numerous industries (like Gilera), the city has gradually expanded up to become, today, one of the most active and largest city in Brianza. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Arcore」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
