San Michele Arcangelo, Borgo d'Ale

San Michele Arcangelo (St Michael Archangel) is a Baroque-style, Roman Catholic church located in the town of Borgo d'Ale, province of Vercelli, region of Piedmont, Italy. An older church dedicated to St Michael, a common entitlement for Lombard churches, rises in a rural site south of town in Clivolo, a neighborhood encompassed in the town limits of Borgo d'Ale.

The facade has a Borrominesque play of concave and convex elements. To the right is an older campanile, refurbished in subsequent centuries.

San Michele Arcangelo is located in the town, and was designed by Bernardo Vittone, one of his last designs, and completed posthumously from 1771 to 1778. The layout of this church includes a centralized nave with a separate circular presbytery framed by a separate columnade, creating for the altar its own locus. From the nave emerge four chapels: the first on the left dedicated to the souls in purgatory, the second, to the Virgin of the Rosary. On the right, nearest the entrance is the altar dedicated to St Sebastian patron of Borgo d'Ale, and the next chapel dedicated to St. Joseph in Agony. Throughout the church are depiction of the militant St Michael, including in the oaken pulpit, in a statue to the right of the main altar, and depicted in the main altarpiece. Behind the main altar is the rectagonal cantory with oaken choir stalls. Above the center of the nave is a well-lit hexagonal central dome.
