Chiesa di San Michele, Medieval church in Monza, Italy

The San Michele Church featured a single-aisle layout with architectural elements reflecting northern Italian ecclesiastical design of the medieval period.

In 1128, the church served as the coronation site for Conrad III of Swabia, marking a significant moment in the religious and political history of Monza.

A painter from Rimini created a fresco cycle in 1320, including the Mass of Saint Michael scene now preserved in the Monza Cathedral Museum.

The church stood at its original location until 1921, when authorities demolished it to create the current Piazza Carducci in central Monza.

Two surviving fresco fragments from the church display rare 14th-century artistic techniques, including a Dormition of the Virgin and the Mass of Saint Michael.
