Santa Maria Incoronata Church, Gothic church in Corso Garibaldi, Milan, Italy.
Santa Maria Incoronata Church in Milan features an unusual double facade where two identical buildings stand side by side, sharing a unified structure. Both sections display Gothic pointed arches and circular rose windows characteristic of Italian architecture from that period.
The original building was a church that underwent significant modification in the 15th century to commemorate an important political event. These changes reflect how religious spaces during the Renaissance served to document secular power and authority.
The church's name refers to a ducal coronation event, and its interior displays religious artworks spanning different periods. Visitors can see traces of its long use through frescoes and altar furnishings that remain visible today.
The building sits on an active street and is easily reached on foot, with various approaches to the surrounding area. Visitors should be aware that services and private ceremonies may affect access at certain times.
The interior contains two parallel naves separated by Gothic pillars, resulting from the joining of two originally separate buildings into one structure. This unusual arrangement allowed two distinct religious functions to operate under a single roof.
