After the king was assassinated, the Savoy family no longer came to Monza and built this monument - I remember

The Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul in Carate Brianza is located in the hamlet of Agliate: this is why it is known as the Basilica of Agliate. Dating back to the early 11th century, it is a Romanesque basilica, attributable to the Ottonian architectural tradition (Ottonian art is that which extends from 887, the beginning of the Ottonian dynasty, to the year 1000). The walls are constructed of river pebbles and ashlars, bound with mortar. The façade is salient and reflects the three-nave structure, each with an entrance door. The central nave is raised above the side naves.

Monza Cathedral, officially known as the Basilica Minore di San Giovanni Battista, is located in the city's historic center. It is a religious building built between the 14th and 17th centuries. It houses the Iron Crown of Queen Theodelinda, one of the most significant jewels in Western history. The complex is known for its evocative pictorial decorations and historical charm.

The connection between the Royal Villa, its Gardens, and the city of Monza was established through the so-called "Royal Groves," a triangular area aligned with the southern entrance to the Villa. The regular layout of the Royal Groves consisted of a series of avenues converging on a circular square, traversed by a system of secondary paths, with three squares at the main intersections. The layout still exists today: the lateral avenues (Regina Margherita to the west and Francesco Petrarca to the east) are now accessible to vehicles, as is the converging square (Piazza Citterio), while the other paths are pedestrian.

The historic center of Monza is an area rich in history and art, centered on the Cathedral (with its Treasury and the Chapel of Theodolinda and the Iron Crown), the imposing Arengario (old town hall), shopping streets such as Via Italia, and medieval monuments such as the Ponte dei Leoni and the Torre di Teodolinda, with a lively nightlife along the Lambro River and the presence of the Civic Museums.

A history spanning more than 1,400 years, a complex and monumental structure, a rich array of decorations and furnishings, a priceless treasure, and a dense network of international relations throughout its history make Monza Cathedral one of the most important ecclesiastical institutions in Italy and Europe. This importance seems to have been destined for the basilica from its very beginnings, dating back to the difficult years of the initial organization of the Lombard kingdom in Italy and linked to the figure of Queen Theodolinda (c. 570–627), a Bavarian princess of Catholic faith, who married, in succession, two Lombard kings: Authari (in 589–90) and Agilulf (from 590 to 616).
