The Basilica of San Giovanni Bosco stands on Colle Don Bosco, in the hamlet of Morialdo, a hamlet of Castelnuovo Don Bosco, in the province of Asti, and is part of the Archdiocese of Turin. Dedicated to Saint John Bosco, it was erected between 1961 and 1966 on the site adjacent to the Cascina Biglione-Damevino, the saint's birthplace.

When you get to the "col" of Albugnano go all the way up to the view point.

Place of worship and prayer Frazione Morialdo, 30, 14022 Castelnuovo Don Bosco AT http://colledonbosco.org/ 0119877111

From here you can see Monferrato, the Langhe, the Roero, Turin and even Mont Blanc.

The central square of the town presents various points of interest. A beautiful neoclassical chapel dedicated to San Rocco; several buildings that surround it; and above all, the statue of Don Bosco, which dominates the square. Continuing along quite steep streets you reach the upper part of the town, where you are rewarded for your efforts by other points of interest.

It is the house where San Domenico Savio lived after the family moved from San Giovanni. The house is now used as a museum of the Saint. The statue of San Domenico Savio inside is also interesting. For those who are passionate, or even just curious, about the history of Don Bosco and San Domenico Savio, a destination not to be missed.

Albugnano being about 500 above sea level offers a beautiful view, if it is a bit windy day the view is even more beautiful.
