Castello de la Mandria
Designed in the 16th century as a hunting Lodge for the Savoy family by Juvarra, working on orders from Victor Amadeus II, horses were reared at the castle for hunting or military purposes.
In the mid-19th century, the castle was renovated by Victor Emanuel II.
There is a 16,000-acre park surrounding the castle, with countless varieties of flora and fauna.
In 1978, this park was opened to the public.
