Sanctuary of the Madonna of Miracles, Baroque shrine in Corbetta, Italy
The Sanctuary of the Madonna of Miracles is a Baroque church in Corbetta with an eighteenth-century altar that protects a precious fresco from 1475. The building features a museum area displaying religious objects and historic spaces dedicated to devotion.
The sanctuary emerged in the Renaissance in response to reported miraculous events from the 16th century. The building later grew into the Baroque period and was enriched with artistic and architectural elements.
The sanctuary took its name from miraculous events that pilgrims experienced and passed down through generations. Today visitors from the region come to pray inside and admire the artistic beauty of the interior spaces.
The sanctuary is within walking distance from central Corbetta and sits in a quiet area away from main traffic roads. Visitors should come during opening hours as this is an active pilgrimage site with prayer times.
The church preserves a fresco attributed to an artist who also created major public works in the nearby Milan region. This artwork thus connects local history with broader artistic developments of the Renaissance.
