The San Rocco church is another spectacular religious monument in the marvelous land of Lugano, Switzerland. The country’s respect for tradition, ritual and religion is clearly shown by the excellence of the churches present there. One must agree that the general architecture of churches and their decoration is quite similar to one another, but there are certain things in this place which demand a tourist to come here.

The San Rocco church is medieval church made near the end of the 16th century and reflects that era. It is located at small Piazza which somewhat hides it from open view. Although the church had been completed around 1592, it has undergone several changes and alteration along the years.
Almost all frescoes seem quite old and seem to hail from the 1600s. The whole church interior is flushed with these wonderful frescoes and the one on the ceiling is fantastic in its own way. But the form, the looks of the façade; it seems newer than the rest of the church because of the attractive plaster work and some other features.

The exterior is a classic sixteenth century decoration and architecture which normally referred to as a Baroque styled church. It is not that large when compared to other European churches which have a tendency of being extra-ordinarily large. There is also a waterfront nearby.
The Church is ideally located far-away from the noise and hustle of the city which makes it a peaceful and quiet place. It manages to give its visitors a spiritual feel; allows people to relax and find solace.
The beauty, architecture and frescoes of this church make it an interesting place to visit. These features when added with the spirituality, softness and tradition of this place combine to give you a truly mystical experience.
