San Giuseppe is a Baroque-style Roman Catholic church in Milan, region of Lombardy, Italy.
Construction was begun in 1607 and completed in 1630. The architect was Francesco Maria Richini. [1] The right side of the church overlooks Via Andegari, after a family with this name. It seems that the title of the street comes from the name of a family known as the "Andegardi" or "undegardi".
The interior contains large altarpieces depicting the Marriage of St Joseph and the Virgin Mary by Melchiorre Gherardini; the Death of St Joseph by Giulio Cesare Procaccini; a Holy Family by Andrea Lanzani; and a St John the Baptist by Stefano Montalti. [2]
