Built between 1227 and 1300, this is the only gothic building in the city of Turin. In 1904 D'Andrade was given the responsibility of overseeing the restoration as the Church had been rather weighed down by decorations and baroque superstructures during the 17th and 18th centuries. The rather simple architectural structure is perfectly balanced. The interior with three naves is enriched by fourteenth century frescoes of the Chapel of Madonna delle Grazie. This church was also the seat of the Convent of the Domenicani which can also be entered from the Church of San Domenico. Open: 7a-7p Services: Weekdays: 6p Weekends: 10a, 6p
