Turin Mysteries & Legends Tour

They say that the capital of Piedmont is the city of magic. On this tour of the mysteries and legends of Turin, we'll tell you stories of mysticism and magic as we explore the old town.

Description

Alongside Lyon and Prague, Turin is part of Europe's so-called black and white magic triangle. Experts claim that the darkest point of this trio is the Piazza Statuto in Turin. This is the meeting point to start uncovering the city's mysteries and legends. A dramatised performance included in the tour adds to the experience.

In this square, you'll find what are considered the Gates of Hell, despite scepticism. You'll also see the Frejus Tunnel monument, dedicated to construction workers who died building the associated railway tunnel, alongside a statue of Lucifer.

Not far from here, we'll explore the Piazza Castello gardens, home to many stories and legends. You'll encounter the statues known as the angles of Turin, which hide a secret message.

The final stop on this tour will be outside the Gran Madre di Dio church. Next to this temple, special sculptures are located, with one allegedly holding the clue to the Holy Grail. Following this, we will take a bus back to the initial meeting point.
