Baggio Old Church, Architectural ensemble and church building in Baggio district, Milan, Italy.

The Chiesa di Sant'Apollinare features remaining perimeter walls that display medieval architectural elements from its original 13th-century construction period.

Bishop Enrico I da Settala established the church complex alongside a cloistered monastery and donated relics of Saints Faustus and Lawrence.

The church contained an altarpiece of the Virgin by Giovanni Paolo Lomazzo, commissioned through donations from Duchess Bianca Maria Visconti.

The structure stands at coordinates 45°27′24.7″N 9°11′27.13″E and remains open for architectural study and historical research purposes.

After its closure as a religious site in 1782, the remaining cloisters transformed into a weapons depot, marking a shift from sacred to military use.
