Cathedral of Saluzzo, stunning in its Gothic architecture, and located at the end of the main street of Saluzzo, which in turn is a small gem that must be visited.

The ancient village of Saluzzo is gorgeous. Narrow cobbled streets between historic buildings lead up to Castilla, the fortress/castle that towers over the city, a bit like the Spielberg towers over Brno (ironically). A must visit.

For over four centuries, Saluzzo was the capital of the marquisate of the same name and is one of the best preserved medieval cities in Piedmont and a bishopric. At the foot of Monviso, at the mouth of the Po, Bronda and Varaita valleys, lies the Monviso Park. Saluzzo offers its visitors a rich program of cultural and sporting events and the historic city center is definitely worth a visit, with its countless bars and restaurants offering something for everyone.

With the old town on the left, stretching up the hill and definitely worth a visit, this street leads through the lively city center, with numerous adjacent bars and cafes. On Saturday mornings you should avoid this road, at least by bike, because the weekly market takes place here, highly recommended, but on foot;)

A small jewel, worthy of its history as the capital of the Marquisate of Saluzzo. Noteworthy is the Cathedral of Maria Vergine Assunta, a late 15th century building in late Gothic style. Corso Italia, pedestrianized, is a favor, full of beautiful architecture, to be strolled and enjoyed calmly. You really feel the story.
