Chiesa della Madonna del Pilone, Baroque church in Turin, Italy.

Chiesa della Madonna del Pilone stands on Corso Casale with a single nave layout and two lateral chapels adorned with decorative stucco elements.

Maria Cristina of France commissioned the construction of this church in 1645 to commemorate a rescue event from the previous year.

The main altar displays an Annunciation image from 1587, while the cupola contains frescoes created by artist Bartolomeo Guidobono.

The church opens daily from 7:00 to 12:00 and 15:30 to 18:00, offering regular services according to the Roman Catholic tradition.

A flour miller's daughter fell into the river near this location, and according to local accounts, a light beam revealed her position for rescue.
