San Giovannino, Baroque church in central Alessandria, Italy
San Giovannino is a baroque church located in central Alessandria. The building displays a triangular pediment on its facade, decorated with statues representing theological virtues and religious figures.
Construction of this church began in the 16th century and was completed in the 18th century. Architect Giuseppe Domenico Trolli oversaw the design in baroque style.
The church serves as a meeting place for local confraternities that gather for religious ceremonies and processions. These groups keep alive traditions that have been part of the community for generations.
Services follow the Traditional Latin Mass format and take place regularly each month. The best time to visit is during these worship times if you wish to experience the church in use.
Inside the church hangs a 1718 painting by Giuseppe Daneo depicting the beheading of Saint John. This work reflects the original dedication of the church to John the Baptist.
