The Abbey of Santa Maria di Rovegnano (Latin: Sanctæ Mariæ Clarævallis Mediolanensis) is a Cistercian monastic complex in the comune of Milan, Lombardy, northern Italy. The borgo that has developed round the abbey was once an independent commune called Chiaravalle Milanese, now included in Milan and referred to as the Chiaravalle district.
The abbey was founded on 22 January 1135 as a daughter house of Clairvaux;[1] it is one of the first examples of Gothic architecture in Italy, although maintaining some late Romanesque influences.
