Santa Grata, Baroque church in Città Alta, Bergamo, Italy.
The Santa Grata church features elaborate interior decorations, grand frescoes, and architectural elements that showcase Italian Baroque design principles from the 16th century.
The monastery of Santa Grata, documented since 911 CE, originated as the oldest religious complex in Bergamo, with initial construction dating back to the 4th century.
The church houses significant artworks, including altar pieces by Enea Salmeggia and paintings by Filippo Ronzelli depicting religious figures and saints.
Visitors can access the church through Via Arena or Via Sotto le Mura di Santa Grata, with the main entrance marked by a sandstone Baroque portal from 1649.
The exterior walls reveal multiple layers of history through partially visible pointed arches and preserved frescoes showing saints within circular frames between the arches.
