★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Church of Santa Maria al Monte dei Cappuccini is a late-Renaissance-style church on a hill overlooking the River Po just south of the bridge of Piazza Vittorio Veneto in Turin, Italy. It was built for the Capuchin Order; construction began in 1583, and was completed in 1656. The original design was by Ascanio Vitozzi, but was completed by the engineer Giacomo Soldati.
Under the altar of the left chapel lies the body of Saint Ignatius of Santhià. The high altar originally bore Orazio Gentileschi's Assumption of the Virgin, now in the Turin City Museum of Ancient Art.
The perfect spot for a panoramic picture of Turin!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Probably the best view of the city and of the Alps in the distance. It's absolutely stunning, specially at sunset. Although it's at the top of a hill, it's quite easy getting to the top. Definitely recommend the visit.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Location of one of the best, most known and iconic viewpoints of central Torino. If you can - make it for sunset and onwards, both evening and night views are amazing.
Another significant plus is that it could be easily reached by foot from Piazza Vittorio Veneto - use the opportunity.
