San Martino Sanctuary, Neoclassical church and national heritage in Cinisello Balsamo, Italy.

The San Martino Sanctuary features a Latin cross layout with three naves, a neoclassical facade, and a sixty-meter-high bell tower completed in 1856.

The sanctuary originated in 1911, replacing an older religious structure from the 13th century that served the Balsamese community within the Ambrosian archdiocese.

The interior contains frescoes by Carlo Farina from 1892, depicting scenes from evangelists' lives and religious themes across the walls.

The sanctuary stands at the intersection of Via San Saturnino and Via San Martino, offering masses according to the Ambrosian Rite calendar.

The bell tower preserved its original bells during World War II when local clergy protected them from military requisition for war purposes.
