Sometimes the same Catholic church is dedicated to two different saints. In this case, however, there are actually two separate buildings—albeit quite similar ones that sit effectively side-by-side at one end of Turin's huge San Carlo square. The church on the left of the photo is Santa Cristina, the one on the right San Carlo. Below is the view from there across the square.
Both churches have opulent interiors—as you might expect from a Baroque building. The two photos below show the inside of San Carlo.
The next two shots were taken at Santa Cristina.
You might have noticed that there is only a single bell tower. It is attached to San Carlo.
The final photo shows one of the side streets leading off the square.
San Carlo square is right in the centre of the city. We crossed it many times as the flat we had rented for our stay was just around the corner.
