TheBasilica of Superga is a hilltopCatholic basilica inSuperga, in the vicinity ofTurin, Italy. It was built from 1717 to 1731 forVictor Amadeus II, the duke of Savoy and futureking of Sicily, to a design byFilippo Juvarra. The building of the church fulfilled a vow Victor Amadeus had made during theBattle of Turin, after defeating the besieging French army in theWar of the Spanish Succession. The basilica is considered to be an example of late Baroque-Classicist architecture. Its royal crypt is the traditional burial place of members of theHouse of Savoy, including various kings of Sardinia andof Italy. In 1949, the basilica was the site of theSuperga air disaster when the plane carrying theGrande Torino football team collided with the church's rear supporting wall, killing the entire team and their coach. This photograph shows the basilica with theMonte Rosa massif in the background.
