Piasco, located on the left of the Varaita stream, has ancient origins. It was a Roman customs station and then passed from the Lords of Venasca to the Marquises of Saluzzo up to the Savoy. Among the medieval testimonies still visible today, the civic tower, once a bell tower, and the Church of San Giovanni stand out. The Porporati castle, dating back to 1655, dominates the historic center.

La Castiglia is a fortress and was once the seat of the rulers of Saluzzo. Located above the picturesque old town with a great view over the city

Ancient village of Saluzzo, surmounted by the Castilla - fortress-castle that dominates the city, similar to the Spielberg in Brno (ironically). Area to visit absolutely. Climbs a bit tough, cobbled and labyrinthine - here and there I gave up looking for the right road, and shouldered my bike up the steps.

Savoy palace. Fountain in the square

In a historic center the size of a handkerchief Cavallerleone hosts an incredible density of historic buildings. The splendid Palazzo Balbo Ferrero stands out above all, on the main square. Behind, a short distance away, the remains of the medieval castle: on the one hand it is a pity that it is partially in ruins, on the other this gives it an atmosphere of a gothic novel. Also on the square, the parish church, and a short distance away the seventeenth-century Palazzo Barberi di Branzola, a little shabby but still showing the signs of its ancient splendor. Behind the church you can glimpse the internal balconies of the Carron Ceva building, anonymous on the outside and which gives very little to the view, but that little is really beautiful. In front of one side of the castle, the church of the Confraternity of the Disciplinati; and finally, from the streets of the historic center, here and there you can see the internal decorations of the medieval castle, even the worthy ones. The whole center can be toured in less than a quarter of an hour - it is really tiny - but it deserves to be toured and appreciated. A true unknown gem.

History Founded around the 11th century as a stronghold in the Marca of Turin, the castle of Racconigi subsequently passed to the Marquises of Saluzzo and then to the Savoy. The original fortified structure with corner towers was transformed during the seventeenth century: in 1670, in conjunction with the elevation of the castle to the residence of the Savoy-Carignano family, André Le Nôtre designed the garden; in 1676 Guarino Guarini undertook a comprehensive renovation of the building, which was never completed. Starting from 1755 the works were resumed by the architect Giambattista Borra at the behest of Prince Luigi of Savoy-Carignano: the pavilions on the main façade, the large access pronaos, the hall characterized by the so-called "loggia of musicians" date back to this phase, Diana's room and the Chinese lavatories. But it was with the accession to the throne of Carlo Alberto, prince of Carignano, that the residence took on its present appearance: in 1820 the German gardener Xavier Kurten redesigned the green spaces, while the decoration and rearrangement of the interiors were entrusted to the architect Pelagio Palagi, whose taste between neoclassical and eclectic is well represented by an environment of singular charm such as the Etruscan Cabinet. At the same time, the neo-Gothic style service buildings of the Serre and Margaria were built on the edge of the park, intended for the agricultural management of the territory pertaining to the castle. With the transfer of the capital from Turin to Florence (1865) and then to Rome (1871), the royals gradually lost interest in the castle, at least until the early twentieth century, when King Vittorio Emanuele III elected it again as the seat of holiday. The castle was purchased in 1980 by the Italian state. The sumptuous apartments are evidence of the most significant stages of transformation that the castle underwent from the seventeenth century to the beginning of the twentieth: stuccos, frescoes and furnishings constitute a significant panorama of the changing taste of the court over the course of about four hundred years. The gardens and park keep their nineteenth-century layout intact, characterized by a romantic structure with streams, ponds, caves and monuments.

Beautiful town also rich in history. The center is a fine example of a well-preserved "mountain" city. Among the monuments to see, the parish church of San Giovanni Battista, and the Civic Tower, an ancient bell tower now incorporated into the structure of the Town Hall. Several water points throughout the country. Almost the entire center is a pedestrian area, so you can go around without fear of being overwhelmed by the driver on duty.
