Santa Maria Nuova, Minor basilica in Abbiategrasso, Italy.
The church features a Renaissance quadriportico with granite columns and Gothic-Roman capitals surrounding its Romanesque facade with five pinnacles and pointed arches.
Construction began in 1365, and the church was renamed Santa Maria Nuova in 1388 to commemorate the birth of Giovanni Maria, son of Duke Gian Galeazzo Visconti.
The interior displays eight side chapels dedicated to various saints, with 18th-century baroque modifications including a raised central nave and large cross vaults.
The basilica underwent extensive renovation between 1987 and 1990, including restoration of the quadriportico and cleaning of the frescoes with funding from Banca Popolare.
The unfinished portico arch, created in 1497, represents the final architectural work of Donato Bramante in the Lombardy region.
