Sanctuary of Santa Maria di Piazza
The Sanctuary of Santa Maria di Piazza is a graceful and intimate church in the heart of Turin, known for its harmonious Renaissance architecture and long-standing devotion to the Virgin Mary. Built in the early 16th century, it stands on the site of an earlier chapel and reflects the city’s transition from medieval forms to a more balanced, classical style. Its elegant façade, soft lines, and refined proportions make it a quiet architectural gem amid the surrounding streets. Inside, the sanctuary offers a serene atmosphere enriched by frescoes, altarpieces, and delicate decorative details that highlight centuries of local faith. The venerated image of the Madonna, central to the church’s identity, has drawn worshippers for generations. Though modest in scale, Santa Maria di Piazza embodies a deep spiritual continuity and remains a cherished place for reflection, prayer, and artistic appreciation within Turin’s historic centre.
