The church of San Salvario stands in one of Turin's most notorious areas; notorious for there being difficulty of integration of the local population with the immigrant population that has arrived in recent years. Construction of the church and its convent annexe began in 1645 but it was soon altered by Castellamonte who introduced the convent wings on either side of the church. The facade has two orders with the portico crowned by another trabeation. The upper level of the building takes up the motif that decorates the portico.
