Even though the Airport Chaplaincy “Madonna di Loreto” of the Airport of Milano-Linate was ‘only’ canonically erected in 2002, the current chapel was built in 1989 and the history of the Linate-Airport Church is even older. The existence of an oratory was documented in the sixties and over time, it has been entrusted to the care of both the diocesan clergy and the Military Ordinariate (which was already operating in the neighbouring military airport).
Before the current chapel, there was another outside the airport, where today stand multi-storey car parks. Prior to that, the chapel existed inside the airport.
