Santa Maria alla Porta Church, Baroque church in central Milan, Italy

Santa Maria alla Porta features a triangular tympanum and a facade decorated with Corinthian and Ionian columns in the Italian Baroque style.

The original church existed before 1105, while the current structure was built in 1652 under architects Francesco Maria Richini and Francesco Castelli.

The church maintains regular religious services in both Italian and Polish, serving as a central point for the Polish-speaking community in Milan.

Located near the ancient Porta Vercellina gate, the church stands at coordinates 45.465357 latitude and 9.181499 longitude in Milan's historic district.

During renovations in 1651, workers discovered a fresco of the Virgin Mary and Jesus, which prompted increased donations for the church's restoration.
