San Gregorio Magno Church, Romanesque Revival church in Milan, Italy

San Gregorio Magno Church stands at the corner of via San Gregorio and via Ludovico Settala. Its neo-Romanesque exterior has red brick walls with grey stone details, a gabled facade projecting forward, two tall round-arched windows, a central rose window and a small columned porch sheltering the main portal, above which a mosaic lunette shows Saint Gregory the Great. A square brick-and-stone bell tower rises behind the church.

A church dedicated to Saint Gregory the Great was first built on this site in the 19th century, using stucco and wood under Napoleonic rules, and served the San Gregorio cemetery. In 1903 the architect Solmi, with De Micheli and Poelli, began a masonry replacement completed in 1908. An incendiary bomb destroyed the roof in August 1943, but the load-bearing structure held.

The church follows the Ambrosian Rite, a liturgical tradition that shapes religious identity in Milan's Catholic community. Visitors can experience this distinctiveness during services and observe how local practices differ from Roman traditions.

The church stands at the corner of via San Gregorio and via Ludovico Settala, in Milan's Municipio 2, with via Settala running along its right side. The entrance faces via San Gregorio; the bell tower rises at the rear, behind the apse. It is an active parish church, so visits are best arranged around service times.

The facade has two tall single-lancet windows flanking a projecting gabled porch, with a mosaic lunette of Saint Gregory above the main portal. Behind the church stands a square brick-and-stone bell tower holding five bells in D-flat, cast after the war by Luigi and Giorgio Ottolina of Seregno.
