San Filippo Neri, Baroque Catholic church in Turin, Italy.

The Church of San Filippo Neri extends 69 meters in length and 37 meters in width, making it the largest religious building in Turin.

The church's original structure collapsed in 1706 during the French siege of Turin, leading to reconstruction efforts by architect Filippo Juvarra between 1715 and 1730.

The interior features six chapels with elliptical domes, decorated marble pavements, and medallion bas-reliefs created by Giovanni Battista Bernero along the nave.

Visitors can access the church through Via Maria Vittoria 5, with its left side facing the Turin Academy of Sciences building.

The adjacent oratory wall contains an embedded cannonball from the 1799 French siege, serving as a physical reminder of Turin's military history.
