Tempio Civico della Beata Vergine Incoronata

The Tempio Civico della Beata Vergine Incoronata is a Catholic church in Lodi, Lombardy, Italy.

[1] The church was designed in 1488 by Giovanni Battagio (a pupil of Bramante), continued by Gian Giacomo Dolcebuono and finished by Giovanni Antonio Amadeo, and built at expenses of the Lodi commune, whence the denomination "Civico" ("Municipal"), on the site previously occupied by a brothel.

The church is located in a very narrow street near the Piazza della Vittoria, Lodi's most famous square.

The interior is characterized by sumptuous decorations in gold; in the upper sector is an arcaded matronaeum with blue and golden columns.

It also houses a large gallery of artworks from the late 15th to the early 19th century, executed by the major artists working in Lodi.
