Waldensian Temple

Highlight • Religious Site

This uniquely shaped Waldensian Temple is a building from 1806, with an interesting history of earthquakes and persecutions. From the square you can enjoy a beautiful view of the valley.

Church of San Martino

Highlight • Religious Site

Pleasant religious complex, dating back to the mid-19th century, owned by the Order of Saints Maurice and Lazarus. The square in front has a charging point for electric bikes, and it's a nice place for a break. Also noteworthy, on the square in front, is the memorial monument to King Charles Albert.

Monument to Henri Arnaud

Highlight • Monument

The bronze statue commemorates Henri Arnaud, who led the Waldensians during the Glorious Repatriation and the subsequent resistance to the Balziglia. An excellent opportunity to brush up on a page of history little known to most, but which should make us reflect.

Torre Pellice

Highlight • Settlement

Torre Pellice is an enchanting Piedmontese village, a few kilometers south of Pinerolo. Its history and its territory are closely linked to Luserna San Giovanni. This place is of central importance for the Waldensian Church in Italy and is also the seat of the mountain community "Val Pellice".

The monuments that underline its identity as a historical center of the Waldensian tradition are: the Waldensian Cultural Center – a place dedicated to the promotion and conservation of the documentary heritage and local minority languages, the Guesthouse, the Museum – with its vast historical and ethnographic, the Waldensian House - which houses over 50,000 books, including some of great rarity, such as the valuable Olivetano Bible from 1535, and finally the neo-Romanesque style temple from 1852.

The civic gallery of contemporary art dedicated to Filippo Scroppo is certainly worth a visit, where works of painting, sculpture and some drawings by post-war Italian artists are exhibited.
