Chiesa di Santa Croce

Chiesa di Santa Croce, Baroque church in Cuneo, Italy.

The chiesa di Santa Croce is a baroque church on Via Fratelli Vaschetto in Cuneo, built between 1709 and 1715 to a design by Antonio Bertola, with Francesco Gallo supervising construction. Its concave two-order facade contrasts with the street's orthogonal layout and forms a small square at the corner. Inside, the space is organized on two intersecting ellipses.

Construction began in 1709 under architect Antonio Bertola, with Francesco Gallo overseeing the work until completion in 1715. The church emerged during a period when baroque architecture was flourishing in the region and combined innovative design with religious purpose.

The interior displays fourteen paintings depicting the Triumphs of the Cross, along with images of the four Doctors of the Church. These works shape how visitors experience the baroque space and reveal the religious themes that guided its creation.

The building sits along a street with good visibility from outside and offers straightforward access to the interior for visitors. The surrounding area allows you to appreciate the concave facade fully and explore the adjoining plaza.

The wooden and gilded throne in the centre of the Baroque choir stalls is a Gothic seat known as the "cathedra of San Bernardino", bearing the IHS monogram and attributed to D. Tagliaferro (1418). It came from the confraternity's earlier church, whose 16th-century wrought-iron gate was reused for the presbytery balustrade.
