Saint Ambrose, Catholic church in Brugherio, Italy
The Sant'Ambrogio church features a stone altar separated by a Gothic balustrade and walls decorated with polychrome socket boxes and light parchment.
The original structure dates from the twelfth century and housed various religious orders including Benedictines, Augustinians, and Humiliati until Napoleon's suppression of monasteries.
The church contains fourteenth and fifteenth-century frescoes depicting biblical figures, including representations of Saint Sebastian and the bishop in younger forms.
The religious building stands at Via dei Mille 112 in Brugherio and participates in the Ville Aperte project promoting arts in Monza province.
According to sources, Bishop Ambrose of Milan owned a villa at this location and gave the land to his sister Marcellina for contemplation.
