Abstract
The examination of the imperial documents for the monastery of S. Ambrogio in Milan demonstrates the importance of this monastery and more generally of the city of Milan within the Empire in the IX-XII centuries. The lack of dating from Milan testifies that the Lombard metropolis, starting from the Ottonian age, was substantially excluded from the imperial itineraries, even if its archbishops and monks of the royal monastery par excellence constituted for centuries a fixed point of the Reichskirche south of the Alps .
