San Patrizio Sanctuary, Medieval sanctuary in Colzate, Italy.

The San Patrizio Sanctuary stands on a hill in Valle Seriana, featuring stone walls that merge with the surrounding rocky landscape at 45.82°N 9.85°E.

The initial construction of the sanctuary began with a small shrine in the 13th century, followed by major expansions between 1580 and 1600.

The sanctuary contains a 1514 fresco of the Last Judgement by Jacopino Scipioni, depicting Christ, angels, and detailed scenes of salvation and damnation.

Visitors can access the sanctuary through a paved road from Colzate, with dedicated parking spaces available at the base of the hill.

The sacello chapel houses a grotto-like structure from the 13th century, decorated with medieval frescoes influenced by 1493 Michael Wolgemut woodcuts.
