About
The Cappella Colleoni is a church and mausoleum in Bergamo in northern Italy. Dedicated to the saints Bartholomew, Mark and John the Baptist, it was built between 1472 and 1476 as the personal shrine for the condottiere Bartolomeo Colleoni, a member of one of the most outstanding families of the city, and his beloved daughter Medea. The site chosen was that of the sacristy of the nearby church of Santa Maria Maggiore, which was demolished by Colleoni's soldiers.
LessRatings & Reviews
This chapel is unusual in that though it's right next to the Cathedral, unlike most chapels of the major churches, it has a separate entrance. An impressive marble facade, one of the highlights of Ren
The magnificent facade distinguishes it from the church it stands next to. It is consider an authentic Italian Renaissance masterpiece. No photos allowed inside, but it is well worth a visit
This is the top masterpiece of Bergamo. There’s no way you come to Bergamo and miss this place. It was built between 1472-76 as a mausoleum for condottieri Bartolomeo Collenoi and his daughter Medea.
