Boffalora sopra Ticino (Bufalòra in Milanese dialect) is a municipality of 4,111 inhabitants (data as at 31.12.2019) on the western border of the province of Milan towards Piedmont within the Parco Lombardo della Valle del Ticino. The town is crossed in its central part by the Naviglio Grande and in the peripheral part by the Ticino river.The etymology of the name of the town is not certain: the most accredited interpretations are the following: derivation from the word of German origin ‘Wulfhari’; fusion of the words ‘Boffa l'Ora’, or ‘Boffa l'Aura’ meaning ‘Wind Blows’. This thesis is also credible due to the particular geographical situation of the country, which partly extends over an elevated area of the Po Valley; deformation of the late Latin words ‘Bufalus Ora’ - ‘Buffalo area’ (the area in the early Middle Ages was marshy and with dense vegetation, so there could probably have been a presence of these animals). The first settlement on the site is documented in 1180-1190, during the construction of the Naviglio Grande canal. The village probably started out as a stable building site for excavations, and later evolved into a full-fledged hamlet thanks to its strategic position due to its proximity to the waters of the Ticino and its rich woods, the passage of the canal, fertile land and the intermediate distance between the towns of Milan and Novara. Boffalora sopra Ticino was the scene of numerous battles, including that between Frederick II and Milanese forces in 1245. The oldest mention found of an open mouth on the Naviglio, called ‘Cornice’, owned by the noble Crivelli family, dates back to 1346. It was very important for the use of water linked to agricultural, craft and industrial activities. In 1396, the deed of donation of land belonging to Gian Galeazzo Visconti in favour of the Carthusian monks was drawn up in Pavia, as income for the construction of a monastery and the relative donation: the Boffalora area was also included among these lands.
