If you just only peek at the entrance of the church, you might not realize it. It is necessary to go inside and watch carefully to discern what it is real and what is the result of an optical illusion created by one of the most important Renaissance architects, Donato Bramante, who has created a real trick for the eyes here. As the apse does not exists, cleverly Donato Bramate has solved one of the clues of architecture, considered impossible. If the apse cannot be built for reasons of space, then he gives the illusion that anyway it exists.
In the church you can also admire the extraordinary “Lamentation over the Dead Christ” by Agostino de Fodulis, which is located in the chapel of St. Satiro.
