The history of this venue is deeply connected to engineer Gianni Caproni, who designed his first aircraft on 27th May 1910. He established his activity in Vizzola Ticino in 1913, then moved it two years later to the area around the Taliedo district, close to Via Mecenate, where he gave life to his legendary factory: Officine Aeronautiche Caproni.
