Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

The heart of the historical center: a rectangle of uniform facades and arcades with Palazzo Madama at the center, on which the cardinal axes of the ancient city converge. Numerous metropolitan facilities and architectural excellences overlook the square: in addition to the Royal Palace, those of the Prefecture and the Piedmont Region, the Regio Theater, the Subalpine Gallery, the Torre Littoria, the Church of San Lorenzo and Palazzo Chiablese.

The square today of the Town Hall is used over the centuries as a market for herbs and grains, but is enriched with a monumental design that emphasizes the center of government of the city. In the mid-eighteenth century, a porticoed axis extends the square, occupying the area of the Roman Forum and qualifying the connection between the Town Hall and Piazza Castello. In the square the ancient functions are reproduced: a centrality that is renewed today with the events for or against the Municipality, with the "Luci d'artista", with the market of local products.

Discovering the old stores to find those that are the most authentic places, where you find the neighborhood life and disappears, however, the tourist one.

Stop 4
