Chiesa del Santissimo Salvatore, Catholic church in Messina, Italy.
The Santissimo Salvatore church features a neoclassical facade adorned with Corinthian columns and spans 105 meters in length and 56 meters in width.
Engineer Enzo D'Amore designed the current structure, which was built between 1928 and 1932 following the destruction of the original church by the 1908 earthquake.
The church contains three 17th-century altars in its apses and a wooden crucifix, preserved from the previous structure that was destroyed by the earthquake.
The church serves as the co-cathedral of the Archdiocese of Messina-Lipari-Santa Lucia del Mela and is located on Via San Giovanni Bosco near Messina Cathedral.
From 1943 to 1946, this church temporarily functioned as Messina's cathedral while the main cathedral underwent repairs from war damage.
