Chiesa di San Vito

The Chiesa di San Vito features a single nave oriented east to west, with exposed masonry walls typical of Turin architecture and an eighteenth-century facade.

First mentioned in 860, the church underwent reconstruction in 1694, maintaining only its medieval bell tower from the original structure.

The church received relics of Saint Valentine in 1769 through a ceremonial procession authorized by Archbishop Francesco Luserna Rorengo.

Located at 413 meters altitude on the road leading to Colle della Maddalena, the church includes a terrace that serves as a churchyard.

The church grounds contained a cemetery until 1951, when authorities removed the remains following World War II, leaving only a commemorative cross.
