Basilica di San Fedele

A must visit if you are in Rome. We passed through the Jubilee Holy Door open every 25 years, and saw the Michelangelo Pietà

Stunning basilica in Como. Beautiful architecture. Really enjoyed the beautiful decor on the inside with painted ceilings and beautiful statues. The highlight at Christmas time is the light show that goes on the front of the Basilica when it gets dark outside. It was stunning. We sat outside and watched the amazing light show. We really enjoyed our visit to this church in Como.

Stumbling into this beautiful church during Mass was such a special experience. The atmosphere was peaceful and intimate, and the history in every stone made it feel like stepping back in time. It’s a quiet little gem in Como, perfect for a moment of reflection away from the crowds.

Open every day from 8.30-12.00 then 15.30-19.00, not open Monday mornings. This is worth a visit, a short walk from the main Como cathedral. It was quiet during Easter weekend but will be busier in the summer months.

The Basilica di San Fedele, located in the heart of Como, is one of the city’s most significant historical and religious landmarks, rich in architectural features and cultural history.

The basilica itself is much smaller than the city’s duomo but San Fedele has it’s own cute little charm. I find the surrounding streets to be a little more colorful and the plaza itself, in front of the church, is much bigger — compared to that of the Como Duomo — this makes San Fedele Basilica a very relaxing spot off the crowded, tourist-filled, tiny streets. Great to get an apero right outside the many shops and coffee places while enjoying the Romanesque edifice in front of you! Good historical landmark!

One of the best churches I ever visited. Small but full of incredibly interesting details I haven't seen anywhere else.

Very beautiful building with wonderful stained glass. We ended up there on a Sunday and the church service had a great choir

It's a small church located in Como town, which is not accessible to public. You can only see the inside of the church at the entrance, and that's the only part available from outside.

This is an extremely plain and boring building that's squished between other buildings. If you look at my photo, that's literally ALL there is to the outside of the basilica. This is the least impressive basilica I've seen in Italy. They project images on it at night, but they need to do that to make it remotely interesting. I glanced inside but it's not very small compared to the other places.
