The Cistercian abbey at Abbazia Santa Maria di Morimondo lies in peaceful, green surroundings. Founded in 1134 by a group of monks from Morimondo, the abbey’s life revolves around the central cloister. The door and arches of the façade contrast with the stark interior, where you can see a fresco by Bernardino Luini, a wooden choir from 1522, and a 15th-century crucifix. Learn about abbey life in the Middle Ages in the museum, which explores such topics as food, cooking, energy, water, and architecture over the history of the abbey.

  • The church itself is just a part of the old town area, which is very popular with Italian locals who want some time outside. without traveling very far. It was my local Italian friend's first visit...

  • About 40 minutes from Milano, you find an amazing abbey in a small lovely village. Lombardy has beautiful locations too but it's much more difficult to find them...

  • We went here by bike. There’s a bar and restaurant near the area, it is both peaceful and good place to relax and spend time. There’s also a restroom just near the abbey.
  • Lovely place to visit. The area around is also really nice. Full of local restaurants.
