San Giovannino, Baroque church in central Alessandria, Italy

The church features a triangular pediment on its facade, adorned with statues representing theological virtues and religious figures.

The construction of San Giovannino began in the 16th century and concluded in the 18th century, with architect Giuseppe Domenico Trolli directing the baroque design.

The Venerable Confraternity of the Holy Crucifix maintains its headquarters in this religious building, organizing ceremonies during Holy Week.

Religious services take place on the second Sunday of each month at 11:00 AM, following the Traditional Latin Mass format.

A painting from 1718 by Giuseppe Daneo depicts the beheading of Saint John, reflecting the church's original dedication to John the Baptist.
