Immacolata Concezione Church

Immacolata Concezione Church, Catholic church in Turin, Italy

Immacolata Concezione is a Catholic church in Turin's San Salvario district, on the block bounded by Via Nizza, Pallamaglio, Valperga Caluso and Saluzzo. Its massive facade has four red columns topped by capitals with floral decoration, and the interior is an elliptical plan with broad, light-filled spaces. Architect Enrico Mottura designed it in the early 1900s.

In 1854 Abbot Filippo dei conti Giriodi di Monasterolo founded a shelter institute for poor girls, dedicated to the Immaculate Conception, first in via dei Fiore. In 1860 he moved it to the block between via Nizza, Pallamaglio, Valperga Caluso and Saluzzo, where a small church stood at the corner of via Nizza and via Pallamaglio. The present church was built in the early 1900s to a design by architect Enrico Mottura and was damaged by the bombing of 8 December 1943.

The church is named after the Virgin Mary and her Immaculate Conception, a central theme in Catholic devotion. Visitors notice the traditional religious imagery throughout the interior that reflects this veneration.

The church stands at the corner of Via Nizza and Via Pallamaglio in San Salvario, a short walk from Torino Porta Nuova station. It is not a parish church: it houses the Suore Sacramentine di Bergamo and the chaplaincy for Latin America, so the interior is best visited around their liturgical celebrations. The bells, hung on Cavadini frames, are still rung by rope.

The church bells still hang on stocks from the Cavadini foundry of Verona and are rung by rope, not by an automated system. The building is not a parish church: it houses the Suore Sacramentine of Bergamo and the chaplaincy for Latin America.
