Turin Cathedral was designed by Amedeo di Francesco da Settignano, also called Meo del Caprino, and Filippo Juvarra later modified the tower. The article names no client. The three earlier churches on the site were demolished from 1490 to 1492. The text says the cathedral was built from 1491 to 1498 and the bell tower in 1470, while the infobox dates the tower to 1468 to 1470.
The article calls the style Renaissance and Baroque and gives no materials or dimensions. Guarini was invited in 1667, and the dome was completed in 1694. The infobox gives consecration in 1505.
The Shroud has been kept in the cathedral since 1993. A 1997 fire damaged the Bertola altar and a panel painting. It is an active cathedral and the seat of the Archbishop of Turin. The article gives no visiting hours or ticket details.
