St. Peter and St. Paul's Church, Brebbia

The church features a solid stone structure built with serizzo, granite, and Angera stone, displaying three naves supported by square pillars and monophore windows.

Construction of the church began around 1100 under architect Julius of Novara, replacing an earlier structure on the site of a former Roman temple dedicated to Minerva.

The interior houses 15th-century frescoes depicting Christ in Majesty surrounded by musicians and angels in the apsidal basin of the church.

Located at Via della Chiesa 8 in Brebbia, the church maintains its role as an active parish while welcoming visitors interested in Romanesque architecture.

The church's bell tower dates from the 10th century and stands independently from the main structure, preserving its original medieval configuration.
