Madonna di Fatima in Vigentino Church, Catholic church in Vigentino district, Milan, Italy.

This modern Catholic parish church displays concrete architecture with a distinctive facade featuring a 30-meter spire topped by a Madonna sculpture created by Angelo Biancini.

Construction began in 1961 under the direction of Cardinal Giovanni Battista Montini, with the church officially dedicated to Our Lady of Fatima in 1962 and opened for worship in 1970.

The church represents post-war religious architecture in Milan, featuring over 700,000 mosaic pieces by Augusto Ranocchi behind the main altar and ceramic Stations of the Cross by Angelo Biancini.

The church lacks a traditional bell tower, instead using electric speakers on the roof for bell sounds, and visitors can access it via public transportation from central Milan.

Built before most residents moved to the area, this church was designed to serve 25,000 future inhabitants and stands on the former site of Cascina Albinoni farmhouse.
