Santa Maria in Calvenzano Church, Romanesque church in Vizzolo Predabissi, Italy.
The church features three naves divided by alternating pillars, with a wooden trussed ceiling in the central nave and vaulted ceilings in lateral naves.
The church was donated to Cluniac monks in 1090 by three nobles from Melegnano, who were vassals of Archbishop Anselmo III of Milan.
The main portal displays a remarkable Romanesque sculptural cycle from the 12th century, depicting nine scenes from the childhood of Jesus.
Located on Via della Basilica, the church maintains regular religious services while preserving its architectural and historical elements for visitors.
Archaeological excavations revealed that the church was built upon a Roman fortification that guarded the Via Pandina in the 4th century.
