Basilica di Sant'Eufemia is a church in Milan, Italy. It was established in 472.

The church was built in 472 by Bishop Senatore to house the relics of the martyr Euphemia.^[1] The bishop is buried in the church.

Sant'Eufemia was subsequently the subject of various alterations funded by generous patrons. The church was then rebuilt in the 15th century.^[2] Canon Pietro Casola describes a rogation day procession that left from the Cathedral of Santa Tecla to Sant'Eufemia and other churches before returning to the cathedral.^[3]

The church underwent renovation in 1870 by architect Enrico Terzaghi, who designed a neo-romanesque facade of terracotta and Vicenza stone. The rose window above the entrance is surrounded by bas-reliefs with symbols of the four evangelists.

The interior is neo-Gothic; both the walls and vaults are richly decorated with frescoes. The Madonna and Child is by Marco d'Oggiono. Simone Peterzano's Pentecost was originally painted for San Paolo Converso.
