ItalyMonza (English: MON-zə; Italian: [ˈmontsa] ; Monzese: Monscia [ˈmũːʃa]; Latin: Modoetia) is a city and comune (municipality) in the region of Lombardy in northern Italy. Situated on the Lambro river about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) north-northeast of Milan, it is the capital of the Province of Monza and Brianza and the largest city in the Brianza area, forming a part of the Milan metropolitan area. With a population of 123,672, it is the third-largest city in Lombardy. Originally a Roman settlement, Monza became an important political and religious centre during the Lombard period, particularly under Queen Theodelinda, who established a royal residence and founded the early basilica from which the present Monza Cathedral developed.
