Monte dei Cappuccini (Il)

via Giardino, 35, Turin, Italy

 

On the south-east side of the Po, behind the Gran Madre, the mountain of Cappuccini appears. This was a fortified emplacement from the 18th century and it played an important part in all the neighbouring Turin wars. There is the church of Santa Maria del Monte on the piazzale, flanked by the National Museum of Mountains, the most important of its kind in the world. The view that can be enjoyed from this point is one of the most enchanting in the city.

Open: 10am-7pm. Services: Weekends: 11am, 5pm.
