San Lorenzo

Description

This church was built by the will of Emanuele Filiberto, who had promised to build a church in a vow made before the battle of San Quintino, won by the king, which took place on the 10th August, the day which is dedicated to San Lorenzo. The church was built according to a plan by Guarino Guarini between 1667 and 1680. It is a perfect expression of seventeenth century baroque style both in the design of its dome and in the interior decorations.

I loooooved it!

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 9/15/05

Very quaint. The spring where you get your water is awesome. Beautiful views of the alps. Great place to take a walk. Quiet, homey, not touristy. Real Italy. Relaxing. Great for a break from the hustle and bustle of Venice and Flourance. The kind of place where you walk by the bar and hear a few old man shouting friendly at each other. I loved it.
