Basilica di Santa Maria della Passione

Place of worshipLocals' pick

Milan's second-largest church after the Duomo, begun in 1486 for the prelate Daniele Birago, and so full of paintings by Procaccini, Bramantino, Daniele Crespi and Bergognone that Milanese call it an art gallery. Its two facing organs are used for concerts.
