Chiesa di Gesù Buon Pastore, Catholic church in Pozzo Strada district, Turin, Italy.

The chiesa di Gesù Buon Pastore is a Catholic church in the Pozzo Strada neighborhood built during the postwar period with contemporary design. Inside, you find a rectangular central nave lit by colored windows and a prominent entrance area with steps leading to three doors.

Construction began in 1958 with the underground crypt, and the main building was completed between 1962 and 1965. Cardinal Michele Pellegrino consecrated the church, marking the completion of an important new place of worship for the area.

The parish supports Christian missions in developing countries and regularly collects food and clothing for people in economic difficulty. In 2016 the church took in two refugees from Africa. Classrooms for catechism, parish offices and games rooms sit in a structure behind the church.

The entrance is on the main facade, reached by a staircase leading to three doors framed by a splayed arch. The parish rooms, offices and oratory courts with playing fields lie in the structure behind the church, while the theatre stands detached to its left. A bell tower planned for the left of the facade was never built.

The facade's three entrance doors sit within a recessed arch, and the original design called for a bell tower on the left that was never built. A separate theatre stands to the left of the church, its wall carrying a stylised metal crucifix. The parish took in two refugees from Africa in 2016.
