Saluzzo Guided Tour
We'll meet at the time indicated in Piazza Castello, in the centre of Saluzzo, to start our tour. Are you ready to discover this fascinating medieval town?
In Piazza Castello we'll be immediately struck by the image of the Castiglia, an imposing building that was once the residence of the Dukes of Saluzzo. After a recent restoration, it now houses two museums.
After observing the castle from the outside, we'll continue our guided tour through the narrow streets of the centre, passing through intriguing porticoed passages. All dominated by the imposing image of Monviso, known as the "King of Stone".
Along the way, we'll explore the church of San Giovanni, the Town Hall, and its Civic Tower. Along cobbled streets, we'll see aristocratic palaces, churches, and stairways with views, until we reach the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption, a Lombard Gothic temple from the end of the 15th century.
After discovering the history and observing the cathedral's decoration, we'll conclude the tour after 2 hours.
