Places
Filatoio Rosso di Caraglio
The Filatoio (Spinning Mill), built between 1676 and 1678, is an extraordinary example of 17th century Piemonte “industrial architecture”. Today, completely restored, it houses the Museo Regionale della Seta (Regional Silk Museum), as well as contemporary art shows.
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.
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.

People
Gianni Amelio
“Then I envy Torino natives who can live in this city. I shot an important film here: ‘The Way We Laughed’ and when I see it now I get the impression that it was like a last documentary of Torino of the 1990’s. Since then, a process of modification has begun, today the city has changed but, thanks to its strength, it has avoided the contamination of the wrong type of modernity.”
Cesare Cremonini
“Torino is a very special place that, aside from what it might appear to be, has great musical vitality, many places in which the creativity of the younger generation can be affirmed…this is a city that is truly suitable to the young.”
Antonello Venditti
“Torino is a fist of good earth raised to the sky…it’s my second home. I found a special lady here who knows how to reward me with affection. This is why I will never forget the concert I gave at Palasport in 1980”.
