Chiesa del Carmine, Turin

The church has a high nave and three chapels to each side. There are high open galleries above the chapels; along the nave two arches always appear one above the other, that of the chapel and that of the gallery; the wall as a boundary of the nave has been replaced by a skeleton of high pillars.

The interior gives the impression of a Gothic church refurbished in the Rococo style. The photo shows the view towards the altar.
