Description
The big
square is mastered by the church for Saint Gervaso e Protaso, patron of
Parabiago. Maybe already existent in the IV century, the actual
building was
made almost in 1610 under the control of the Milan bishop S.Carlo
Borromeo. The
current facade, in neoclassical style, isn't the original one. This
front dated
1780 was projected by the important architect Giuseppe Piermarini. In
1951 the
vicar Gaetano Cappellini wanted to face it in travertine, and made put
on the
lintels some statues: the angels with the trumpets, the saint patrons
and the
Lady of the Assumption. On the left of the church, in the area of the
parish
garden, in 1967 rose the broad parsonage. Now we can visit the inside.
