Highlight • Monument

The 'Alpino con Mulo' is a memorial monument consisting of a granite base that forms a mountain peak, above which is placed a bronze statue group representing an Alpine soldier with his mule. At the foot of this is a broken cart wheel, also in bronze. The base bears the name of the sculptor and the year of creation. On the left, a bronze plaque records General Diaz's "Victory Bulletin."

Piazzo Funicular

Highlight • Structure

The Biella funicular connects the lower station on Via Curiel in the Piano district with an upper station on Via Avogadro in the medieval Piazzo district.
The funicular was first opened in December 1885 and was initially hydraulically operated, in 1899 it was converted to electric operation and in 1975 equipped with new trams. The line reopened in July 2018 after a further closure for maintenance and a renovation costing €1.8 million. Both sets have a capacity of 18 passengers.
