Just under a year later, on 3 September 1779, King Vittorio Amedeo III, with a royal decree, recognized the new municipality with the name San Giusto, chosen by the inhabitants as their protector.

An emblematic episode of this rivalry, which actually occurred in 1750 during religious processions for the blessing of the fields, was the theft of the crucifix from the church of San Giorgio, carried out by a group of Gerbolini on the border of the two towns.

The Gerbolini responded to the nickname given to them by the people of San Giorgio by calling them 'Mangia-Cristiani' (Christian-eaters), referring to the case of "Jena," a butcher sentenced to death for numerous crimes and accused of making sausages with the flesh of his young victims.

Its sole value lies in the fact that it has been in the same location for many decades, testifying to the connection between the Sangiustesi and the work of farmers and breeders, still significantly present in the social life of the village today.

It attests to the bequest by Guido di Biandrate of a Mansio and the corresponding lands and adjacent woods located in the region called Ruspaglie (southeast of San Giusto Canavese) to the Knights Templar.

The demographic evolution of the country has generally followed that of the entire Canavese region, with a decrease during the years of economic boom, linked to migration towards the city of Turin and the gradual abandonment of rural areas, followed by an increase starting from the 1980s.

In the last ten years, the favorable combination of being a town (without districts with apartment buildings), where 95% of homes have a garden, and having companies in its territory that employ hundreds of workers in the tertiary sector (Telecittà Studios) has led to a significant increase in residents.

The structure of the settlement is, to say the least, peculiar: the construction of the buildings did not proceed outward from the original core but rather from the four corners of an imaginary square, converging towards the center, which is constituted by the Baroque church of Saints Fabiano and Sebastiano.

The purpose of this urban plan was indeed to "fill" the large empty space that existed between the four "hamlets," located at the four corners of this enormous open area, to connect them to the central Baroque church, built starting from 1697.

Architecturally distinctive is the long tree-lined avenue that cuts the town in half in a north-south direction, consisting of three alternating varieties of "Prunus" with leaves and flowers of different colors.

The incorporation of extensive portions of the countryside within the town has resulted in the presence, still visible today, of numerous votive columns within the settlement and many open irrigation ditches on the sides of the streets.

Facing the square are the oldest buildings: the Baroque church, the eighteenth-century sacristy with a completely frescoed vault, and, slightly shifted, the old wing of the Municipal Palace, housing the council hall from the early nineteenth century.

The chapel of "Marengh", built by Giovanni Maria Petrini in 1804 on the main road towards San Giorgio C.se in honor of the Sorrowful Virgin, underwent various challenges over the centuries (it was even set on fire).
