More information on S. Fedele

Designed by the architect Pellegrino Tibaldi, this is one of the most interesting and important Lombard monuments of the late sixteenth century. Built by the Jesuit order in 1569, the church has a single nave, divided into two spans with columns in a style reminiscent of the halls of roman baths. Despite the unfinished original plan (the presbytery was built later by Richini), the building has a notably coherent form. The external facade is a masterpiece of different architectural styles which are brought to their maximum expressive capacity here. The altars of the side naves are of particular artistic interest. At the back of the church on the right is a small chapel with a part of a fresco from the thirteenth century showing a Madonna with child called 'Madonna delle Ballerine' to which people used to come to place floral tributes.
