Santa Maria Rossa in Crescenzago Church, Romanesque church in Crescenzago, Milan, Italy

The Santa Maria Rossa Church features exposed brick construction with a gabled facade and three interior naves supported by eight large pillars.

The church construction began in 1140, starting from a chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary and underwent multiple modifications through subsequent centuries.

The central nave contains original Romanesque frescoes depicting the Agnus Dei, with colored sails showing angels in continuous worship.

The church follows the Ambrosian Rite and holds regular masses, with special ceremonies during Christmas season starting from November 17.

In 1322, Matteo Visconti, lord of Milan, spent his exile at the church rectory after being excommunicated and was later buried there.
