Cesate (Lombard: Scesaa [ʃeˈzaː], locally [ʃɪˈzɑː]) is a comune (municipality) in the Metropolitan City of Milan in the Italian region Lombardy, located about 17 kilometres (11 mi) northwest of Milan.

Cesate borders the following municipalities: Limbiate, Solaro, Caronno Pertusella, Senago, Garbagnate Milanese.

History

During the Napoleonic era, the municipality was suppressed by a royal decree of 1809, and annexed to Garbagnate Milanese. Cesate regained its autonomy with the Austrian restoration.
