Mayor

Francesco Cesare Nai

In office since

Expiring at

26 June 2022

I was born in Abbiategrasso in 1962 where I spent my youth and undertook, at working age, my first business activities.

I graduated in Humanities and I am passionate about history and geopolitics, but if I could go back, given my particular aptitudes and current interests, I would choose Architecture.

In the past I have been involved in various activities: I have sold cars, managed fuel distribution facilities, and undertaken some real estate ventures.

Today I am a family man, with two daughters who live in Spain, and from 2010 to 2017 I served as President of the Per Leggere Foundation , a position I am honored with and that has given me great satisfaction.

Abbiategrasso, MI, Italia

Slow City

The City

Abbiategrasso, located in the heart of the Ticino Park in Lombardy, is an enchanting place that offers residents and visitors a peaceful and high-quality living experience. The Cittaslow philosophy is demonstrated through the care devoted to the preservation of its rich architectural and cultural heritage, as seen in the 14th-century Castello Visconteo and the Church of Santa Maria Nova, an excellent example of Gothic architecture. The city also has a sustainable mobility system, promoting the use of bicycles and the reduction of motorized traffic. Every year, Abbiategrasso demonstrates its commitment to the Cittaslow philosophy with events such as 'Festival dei Sapori' celebrating quality local products and 'Sagra del Carroccio,' a historic medieval re-enactment. In addition, its proximity to the Ticino Park offers visitors the opportunity to enjoy the rich flora and fauna, relax along its banks, or try their hand at hiking or biking.
