Santa Maria Podone, Gothic church in Milan, Italy.
Santa Maria Podone stands within the Palazzo Borromeo complex, featuring pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and traditional Gothic architectural elements throughout its structure.
Dating back to 871, the church holds written records confirming its status as the oldest religious structure in Milan, predating many other ecclesiastical buildings.
The bronze and copper statue of Saint Charles Borromeo, created by Ambrogio Grosso and Alberto Guerra, represents the religious art traditions of Milan.
Located at Piazza Borromeo 6, the church remains open 24 hours daily without admission fees, allowing visitors to explore its architectural and historical features.
The church bell's relocation from its original position remains documented through specific markings visible in the right aisle of the building.
