The Expiatory Chapel of Monza, an important memorial. It stands on the exact spot where the anarchist Gaetano Bresci assassinated King Umberto I of Savoy on July 29, 1900. The monument was strongly desired by the widowed queen Margherita of Savoy and her son, the new king Vittorio Emanuele III. Designed by architect Giuseppe Sacconi (known author of the Vittoriano in Rome) and completed by his pupil Guido Cirilli, it was inaugurated on July 29, 1910. An imposing 35-meter-high stone structure from Oggiono dominates the complex, surmounted by an urn and alabaster crosses. At the base of the stele is the bronze sculptural group of the Pietà, created by the artist Ludovico Pogliaghi. Inside the base, a black marble marker indicates the exact position of the fatal attack.

Porta Venezia, formerly called Porta Orientale (it was renamed in the 18th century, during Austrian rule) was one of the 8 toll barriers, but above all one of the triumphal entrances to Milan. Its toll houses, which separate corso Venezia from corso Buenos Aires, were built in 1828 by Rodolfo Vantini, an architect who won a competition to replace the two previous toll houses, which were considered too humble and remained unfinished. Vantini built two parallelepiped-shaped buildings, open on three sides with porticoes with Doric order columns; to adorn them, he included sculptures by artists. In the corners, he had Carrara marble statues placed. Looking closely, one notices that high up, on all facades, there are bas-reliefs with scenes from Milanese history.
