The Places We’ll Visit
Travel Storytelling
A day in the Pinerolo region, discovering noble residences and medieval churches.
We begin with a visit to Casa Lajolo in Piossasco, a charming countryside residence meticulously preserved over the centuries. Our journey continues to Palazzotto Juva, where we will stroll beneath vibrant Neoclassical tempera-painted ceilings.
Next, we head to Cavour, where we will explore the Abbey of Santa Maria and its fascinating crypt, visit the Parish Church of San Lorenzo with its exquisite triptych, and enjoy a traditional lunch in a local restaurant in the historic center.
In the afternoon, we travel to Castle of Marchierù, a fortress with ancient origins, passed down through the House of Savoy and various noble Piedmontese families before reaching its current owners. They will personally welcome us for an engaging tour filled with historical anecdotes and curiosities, both inside the residence and through its park.
Before returning to Turin, we will conclude our journey at the Missione Chapel in Villafranca Piemonte, a unique treasure that houses the exceptional 15th-century fresco cycle by Aimone Duce, commissioned by the Acaja family.
