Purtroppo l'interno era parzialmente in restauro, la chiesa è comunque buia e non si riescono ad apprezzare i quadri, anch'essi scuri, probabilmente mai restaurati. Peccato perché l'architettura è particolare.
Unfortunately, the interior was partially under restoration, the church is still dark and it is impossible to appreciate the paintings, which are also dark, probably never restored. Too bad because the architecture is particular.

Un capolavoro tardobarocco. È sempre bello tornarci ed osservarne i preziosi dettagli.
A late baroque masterpiece. It is always nice to come back and observe the precious details.

La Collegiata di San Giovanni Battista è una collegiata che sorge a Morbegno risalente ai secoli XVII-XVIII e consacrata a San Giovanni Battista. Sede parrocchiale dal 1560, conserva un reliquiario della Sacra Spina (della corona di Cristo) e le spoglie del Beato Andrea Grego da Peschiera. È l'edificio barocco più importante della Valtellina e tra i più interessanti della Lombardia. La chiesa, dalla sbalorditiva facciata elaborata secondo il più squisito barocchetto, vanta al suo interno un'opera di rilievo mondiale: La Madonna col Bambino e San Filippo Neri del veneziano Giambattista Pittoni del 1740. Sono stato qui a messa il giorno della Madonna di Lourdes...bellissima giornata⛪??✋. Grazie a Dio ?
The Collegiate Church of San Giovanni Battista is a collegiate church located in Morbegno dating back to the 17th-18th centuries and consecrated to San Giovanni Battista. Parish seat since 1560, it preserves a reliquary of the Holy Thorn (of the crown of Christ) and the remains of Blessed Andrea Grego da Peschiera. It is the most important Baroque building in Valtellina and one of the most interesting in Lombardy. The church, with its stunning façade elaborated according to the most exquisite baroque style, boasts a world-renowned work inside: The Madonna with Child and San Filippo Neri by the Venetian Giambattista Pittoni of 1740. I was here at mass on the day of Our Lady of Lourdes ... beautiful day⛪??✋. Thank God ?

This is still a consecrated church so there are no tours or anything but it is well worth a look inside and somewhere to spend a restful few moments
