Chiesa di Santa Maria in Strada, Gothic church in Monza, Italy

The facade of Santa Maria in Strada features terracotta decorations, a rose window, and double mullioned windows arranged in horizontal bands with geometric elements.

The church construction began in 1348 for Franciscan Tertiaries, following designs by Ambrogio da Milano, and later transferred to Augustinian control in 1393.

The interior displays frescoes by Giambattista Gariboldi depicting the Assumption of the Virgin and Glory of St Augustine, alongside precious religious artworks.

The rectangular hall structure includes a semi-octagonal choir, presbytery, and secondary altars, with the main entrance facing the street connecting Monza to Milan.

The stone statue of Madonna with Child from the first half of the 15th century shows influences of Transalpine style similar to Milan Cathedral sculptures.
