Villasanta

Villasanta (La Santa) is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Monza and Brianza in the Italian region Lombardy, located about 20 kilometres (12 mi) northeast of Milan.[4] It is believed that the original core of the town center emerged during the Roman era, serving as a resting place along the road from Milan and Monza to Olginate, at the junction leading to Vimercate.According to historian Oleg Zastrow, who conducted a study on the parish's history, the church can be dated to the time of Theodoric the Great (around 500) or earlier.[5] Another document confirms the presence, in 961, of the church and attached hospice (in Latin, xenodochium) of Saint Alexander in the area where the homonymous district now stands.[6] In 1791, the municipality of Villa San Fiorano remained under the jurisdiction of the Monza court, part of the XIII "censual district" of the province of Milan.
