Santi Giovanni e Paolo church, Modern church in Villapizzone, Milan, Italy
The Santi Giovanni e Paolo church exhibits modernist architecture with clean lines, geometric shapes, and unadorned concrete surfaces designed by Figini and Pollini.
The church construction began in the 1960s as part of Milan's urban development plans to accommodate the growing population in residential neighborhoods.
The interior design reflects post-Vatican II liturgical principles with a central altar space bringing the congregation closer to religious ceremonies.
The church opens daily for religious services and welcomes visitors from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM, with main Sunday mass celebrations at 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM.
The concrete bell tower rises separately from the main structure, creating a stark vertical element against the horizontal lines of the church building.
