Tempio Votivo, Catholic church in Verona, Italy.

Tempio Votivo is a church in Verona with modernist characteristics featuring clean lines, geometric shapes, and expansive windows. Natural light floods through these windows to fill the interior with brightness and create open spaces within.

Bishop Girolamo Cardinale vowed on 8 September 1943, the day of the Cassibile armistice, to build a church if the war spared Verona and its diocese, hence the title "tempio votivo". Paolo Rossi De Paoli designed it, and it was built between 1950 and 1952. It was inaugurated on 8 December 1952, made a parish church on 25 December 1953 and consecrated by Bishop Giovanni Urbani on 3 May 1958.

The church serves as a place of devotion and community life where residents gather for religious celebrations and prayer. It embodies the local faith and connection to the Virgin Mary that shaped the post-war period.

The church is located at Piazzale XXV Aprile and is open to visitors during the week. Mass is held regularly, so you can plan your visit based on when you prefer to attend or simply look around.

The church was promised by Bishop Girolamo Cardinale on 8 September 1943, the day of the Cassibile armistice, so that the war would spare Verona and its diocese. In 1965 the statue of the Madonna Pellegrina, a gift from the Knights of Malta, was moved from the apse to the chapel named after her.
