Pollenzo, Chiesa di San Vittore

The Church of San Vittore in Pollenzo, elevated to a collegiate church in the 19th century by King Charles Albert, stands facing the Royal Castle as a key element of the Savoyard architectural ensemble. Built on ancient religious foundations and redesigned in a neo-Romanesque style, it served as the spiritual center for the royal residence. With its striking bell tower and richly decorated interior, the church reflects the piety and grandeur of the House of Savoy and remains an integral part of Pollenzo’s UNESCO-listed heritage.
