HISTORY

The compound on which the Zucchi Clinical Institutes were founded dates back to the 17th century and was the paternal residence of noble Bartolomeo Zucchi. At his death, the estate property passed to the Jesuits who, by fulfilling his will, set up the Convitto College of Santa Maria degli Angeli and a public school for the youth.

In 1881 a group of Milanese nobles bought the buildings to create a women’s home: on May 2, 1913, the Anonymous House of Health of the Lord of Monza was born, and since then, the nursing activity began to expand to various specialties. From 1952 to 1970, there were 60,000 children born in what was considered the finest maternity and childcare center by all citizens.

In 1972, the Clinical Institutes became the Zucchi Clinics- Private Care House S.p.A. which joined the San Donato Group in 2002 converting to the name of Zucchi Clinical Institutions in 2004. All three structures of the Zucchi Clinical Institutes are accredited by the National Health Service (SSN).
