Places
Forte di Vinadio
Requested by Re Carlo Alberto, the Forte (Fort) di Vinadio represents one of the most important examples of military architecture from the Alps. It extends length-wise for 1,200 meters, on three levels, which cover about 10 km of interior passageway.
Villa Scott
The little manor house, one of the most important examples of Torino Liberty architecture, is linked to the name of Dario Argento who set his film, “Profondo Rosso” (“Deep Red”) here – perhaps his most emotional film and the one with the strongest visual effects.
Palazzo Callori a Vignale Monferrato
The building, erected during the 15th century, houses Monferrato’s Regional Wine Cellar (Enoteca). The ancient cellars in tuff are still used to store prized wines and grappas.

People
Walter Dang
“Torino is an inexhaustible source of inspiration, women here have an innate sense of elegance… I think that Torino is the most fascinating city in Italy, with the only possible exception of Florence: Art is my muse.”
Benedetta Cibrario
“Torino is a city in which things simmer, working in secret. It’s filled with contrasts, often treated poorly, and it is very beautiful: this is a discovery made as an adult.”
Andrea Lee
“I married a man from Torino and we have started our family here. You fall in love with it gradually, it’s full of hidden, unknown things ready to be discovered, but filled with perversions as well. It has some very beautiful places…..”
