Church of Saint Francis Saverio, Baroque church in Mondovì, Italy.

The Church of Saint Francis Saverio stands as a religious building featuring an octagonal barrel vault and painted architectural elements throughout its interior.

The construction of this religious structure began in 1665 under the direction of architect Giovenale Boetto, following the architectural standards of that period.

The church maintains its role as an active Catholic worship center while functioning as a religious museum that displays important regional baroque artworks.

Visitors can explore the church's artistic elements through an immersive multimedia experience that includes virtual reality presentations and dynamic lighting effects.

Artist Andrea Pozzo created optical illusions inside the church using perspective techniques that make the ceiling appear as a large dome structure.
