The ancient castle of Fiano has endured many vicissitudes, finally falling into the hands of the municipality and being converted into a school complex. The lines of the original building are still discernible. From the entrance (to the south), you can also see the castle's private chapel, beautifully restored. Be careful entering: it's a school, and the Carabinieri are right behind you. It's best to just view it from the outside—and be careful with photos if there are children in school!

Easily reachable from the entrance to the Mandria park from Venaria Reale

Castello della Mandria is a hunting residence of the Savoy family dating back to the 18th century. Immersed in a vast park of over 1,000 hectares, this castle offers a unique combination of history and nature. Used for hunting trips by the royal family, the castle still retains the elegant and rural atmosphere of the time. Its rooms are full of frescoes and period furnishings, and you can also walk in its magnificent gardens and woods. For a complete visit I recommend dedicating at least a couple of hours, and using the available audio guide to discover all the historical curiosities of the place. Castello della Mandria is easily reachable from Venaria (40 min walk).

The castle of Rivara, an important seat of the Cenacle of painters of the Rivara school, is located 30 kilometers from Turin in the Canavese valleys. It is made up of three distinct buildings: the medieval castle, the neo-baroque villa and the stables, surrounded by a park of over 45,000 square metres. Inside, numerous ateliers and rooms regularly host Italian and foreign artists. The multifunctional exhibition space is 2,530 square meters, and the artistic direction was entrusted to Franz Paludetto from 1985 to 2023, the year of his death.

The castle, commissioned by the Duke of Savoy Vittorio Amedeo and whose construction began in the early 1700s, stands on a hill overlooking the estate of the herd, founded in 1693 as a horse breeding place. Both the castle and the estate were subsequently enlarged, at the behest of Vittorio Emanuele the second, who also had the hunting lodge called La Bizzarria built, in addition to several farmhouses, due to its eclectic style. In the castle you can visit the royal apartments rich in furnishings and works of art.

Small fortified village belonging to the Municipality of San Carlo. Noteworthy is the church of Santa Maria Maddalena and the small castle, the latter built for defensive purposes. The first information about this small village dates back to the year 1000.
