Very interesting particular watch.

On the facade of a building in Piazza della Libertà there is this interesting and curious astronomical clock

The Cathedral of Alexandria, located in the city center, stands on the site of a building built in Lombard Gothic style that was demolished in 1803 for military purposes by Napoleon Bonaparte. In 1805 he created the first church of San Marco of Napoleon Himself, which was reconstructed by the architect Cristoforo Valizzone (1807-1810). In addition, there is a story in new style, in contrast to the preserved parts, namely the vault of the central nave and the columns. The questionable style was built in 1874-1879 by the Vercelli architect Edoardo Arborio Mella (1808-1884), which resulted in the architect's residence in Bramante style with talent for works in the two arms of the transept. The current decoration dates from 1926-29 and was entrusted to Luigi Morgari of Turin (1857-1935), while the high altar dates from 1954. The presbytery is decorated with 5 stained glass windows (1954) depicting the Immaculate Virgin, St. Pius V, S. Baudolino, S. Paolo della Croce, the worthy Gregorio Maria Grassi. The organ (1929) completes the ensemble, whose facades adorn the four women's galleries above the presbytery. Behind the high altar you can admire the eighteenth-century choir in inlaid wood, where there is a beautiful painting by Callisto da Lodi (1546) representing St. Peter between St. Paul and St. John the Baptist. Outside, the facade is in neoclassical style with Corinthian order columns. From the paintings that decorate it, there are Saint Peter freed from prison, Saint Peter receiving the keys, Saint Peter going to meet Jesus on the waters of Lake Tiberias, a work by Luigi Vacca of Turin (1771- 1854). In that tympanum, Vacca himself represented the Eternal Father, while in the attic five marble statues represent the Redeemer and the four Evangelists. One wall of the facade is a monument to Gagliaudo, located near the old cathedral, a legendary character who saved the city during Barbarossa's siege of Alessandria (1174).

To find out, I would like to visit the "Citadel of Alexandria". The more people are interested, the more likely it is that they will visit the remains. So let's go!

The history of its origin or construction period does not match, but my spontaneous thought was that this complex could be one of the fortress structures of the famous French architect Vauban. But in any case, the Citadelle of Alessandria is also an absolute highlight of architectural architecture as far as fortresses are concerned.

The Citadel of Alexandria is one of the grandest European monuments in the context of the 18th century permanent fortification.
