San Giovanni Bosco is a rationalist church in Rome, designed by architect Gaetano Rapisardi and completed in 1959. Built during the postwar period when modernist principles were reshaping Italian ecclesiastical architecture, the church exemplifies the rationalist style in its geometric clarity and functional aesthetic. Designated a minor basilica and serving as a parish church, it holds status as Italian national heritage, reflecting its significance within Rome's twentieth-century architectural legacy.
