The same basilica honors other saints of the Salesian family, among them St. Dominic Savio, St. Maria Domenica Mazzarello and Bl. Michael Rua, at its side altars and in its crypt of relics. Valdocco is where Don Bosco began his work with the young.
Salesian formation pilgrimages also go to the countryside of his childhood east of the city, at Colle Don Bosco. In Turin itself, a pilgrim can join Valdocco to the cathedral, where St. Pier Giorgio Frassati is buried and the Shroud is kept.
Good to know before you go: the basilica is a working Salesian church, and its opening hours and Mass times are set by the community, so check them with the basilica before you go. His feast is January 31. Pope St. John Paul II proclaimed Don Bosco "father and teacher of youth" in 1989, a title and not a patronage.
