Gothic art and architecture in Monza

Gothic art and architecture flourished in the city of Monza (near Milan) between the late 13th century and the first half of the 15th. During this period, the city, still proud of having been the capital of the Lombard Kingdom, hosted significant works by the Visconti, Lords of Milan, aimed at asserting their power over Monza and suggesting continuity with the kingdom of Queen Theodelinda. After this initial phase of artistic splendor, the city of Monza gradually lost importance, giving way to the capital of the duchy.
