Architectural history in Samarate
Villa Ricci al Montevecchio is a massive, four-storey building made of brick and stone in the Neo-Romanesque style, extending up to a small observation tower. The Chiesa della Santissima Trinità was built between 1760 and 1777 on the remains of an earlier place of worship. The Oratorio Chiesa di San Rocco is made entirely of exposed brick and now has a floor plan in the shape of a Greek cross. It was built between the end of the 15th and the beginning of the 16th century; its origins are said to be connected with the presence of the Congregation of the Humiliati in Samarate. The church was later rebuilt between 1684 and 1711.
