Basilique Saint-André de Verceil

Elle est un exemple précoce d'architecture gothique italienne, avec des dessins inspirés par les Cisterciens. Elle allie la réalisation paradigmatique de la tradition romane avec les nouvelles influences gothiques.

La basilique a été construite entre 1219 et 1227 sous la direction du cardinal Guala Bicchieri, revenu d'Angleterre où il avait été légat apostolique. Bicchieri avait reçu du roi Henri III le droit perpétuel aux revenus de l'abbaye de Saint Andrew de Chesterton, à Cambridge. Grâce à ce soutien financier, le cardinal a pu appeler à Verceil quelques moines de l'abbaye Saint-Victor de Paris, en leur confiant la responsabilité de la nouvelle abbaye et de l'hôpital à construire pour les pèlerins qui parcourent la Via Francigena.
