San Carlo al Corso is a neo-classic church in the center of Milan.
The church is managed by the Servite Order.
The church facade was designed in 1844 by Carlo Amati and was finished in 1847.[1] It then served as a model for the Chiesa Rotonda in San Bernardino, Switzerland, 1867.
The complex was built to replace Convent of the
Bishop of Milan during the time of the bubonic plague
in Milan during the 16th century.
