Why go
Don Bosco initiated the church, which was inaugurated in 1882. It offers a smaller counterpart to the better-known Valdocco basilica and gives a San Salvario walk a specific religious and architectural focus, even if you only see its exterior. The bell tower also makes the stop legible from the street.
What to look for
- Pick out the tall campanile from the surrounding streets.
- Notice the church’s place in the Salesian history of San Salvario.
Useful to know
- Work it into a San Salvario walk rather than treating the exterior as a long standalone stop.
- Check the church directly for visitor access; published Mass times do not establish sightseeing hours.
