Overlooking the river Mincio, the parish church of San Michele Arcangelo, in Monzambano, was built on the site of another church, between 1743, when the first stone was laid, and 1777, according to the project of the architect Domenico Rossi.
The façade, built in late Baroque style and characterized by a wavy plan with strong vertical lines, is formed by two rows of pilasters on a stone base, ending in a central timpani on which stands the statue of San Michele.
It is a single “nave” with a long rectangular shape, the vault is decorated with frescoes such as “La moltiplicazione die pani e die pesci” by Giorgio Telliè (1777).
In the walls of the nave we can see the beautiful statues of “the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit”, each one standing in its niche, by Stefano Salterio (1730-1806).
