y	yury ignatov on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The church of Gran Madre di Dio is a Neoclassic-style church located in front of Piazza Vittorio Veneto, at the western side of the bridge dedicated to Vittorio Emanuele I, in Turin, region of Piedmont, Italy. The church was conceived in 1814 to celebrate the return of the King Victor Emmanuel I of Sardinia to the throne, after the defeat of Napoleon. The architect was Ferdinando Bonsignore, whose project was chosen following a competition. Construction began in 1818, only to pause for nearly a decade, and restart in 1827, under the rule of Charles Felix of Sardinia. The church was inaugurated in 1831 under Charles Albert of Sardinia.
D	David Sharp on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wonderful part of TURIN to come sit and watch the world go round! Fantastic buildings and a cool car park just around the back..visited in 2017. Did yo know?...These are the very steps where the minis dodged around the wedding couple in the British 1969 classic film THE ITALIAN JOB..
Y	Yamini Soneji on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A very historical place, statues are grand and the church inside had quietitude. Just after a few minutes while I was observing the statutes inside, some service began( do not know what it was as am not a Christian), was a very satisfying and spiritual experience though I has to leave inbetween.
T	Ted Oatway on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The the interior is not why you would visit this church but the view from the top of the stairs is wonderful.
G	Georges Younes on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Chiesa Parrocchiale della Gran Madre di Dio might not break many architectural conventions - it tries hard to look like the Pantheon in Rome - but it occupies a privileged position on the right bank of the Po river. From its elevated platform, it has great perspectives on parts of the historical center of Turin.
A	Anouar Razzouk on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ From the outside, la gran madre overlooks piazza Vittorio, behind the hills climb up to villa della regina. On the left of the gran madre façade -viewer there is la Monte dei cappuccini. The whole ensemble is wonderful, and one of the best sights that Turin offers. The church architecture's is unique. It's like a pagan temple, or Rome's pantheon. When you get inside it's smaller than what you think, and much auster in comparison with lavish leitmotifs and barocco style Turin's catholique churches outthrow at the visitor.
E	E Chueog on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very beautiful and interesting Church. We didn't find the sanitizing gel at the entrance, even if it was needed when having to put some coins as offers for "lighting up" a plastic candle with the button. There was even kind of a well but you couldn't see what's inside or reach it underneath. There was a lift with the lateral entrance, helpful for wheelchairs, and there also some posters with information about the Church.
