The unfinished church of San Michele, an interesting example of Baroque
architecture of Lombardy, was planned during the late 17th century by
arch. Attilio Arrigoni (1640-1704), one of the main planners from Milan
between the 17th and 18th century: he planned Palazzo Sormani (today
seat of the Municipal Library of Milan) and the Church of San Michele
ai Sepolcri in Milan (the cemetery of Ospedale Maggiore), better known as Rotonda della Besana.
It was begun - but not finished - in the second half of the 18th
century, representing an example of Baroque architecture of Lombardy.
Within the complete landscape requalification of the area, some
interventions have been started in order to prevent the degradation of
the church.
