Alpette

Few towns in Piedmont have a history as closely tied to copper working and the partisan Resistance as Alpette. Perched above the Orco Valley in the Canavese area, this small mountain community looks across a landscape of wooded slopes and Alpine foothills. Alpette’s Ecomuseum of Copper, Work and Resistance records local crafts and the role of the valley during the Second World War. The settlement is also a useful base for following roads into the upper Orco Valley, towards Gran Paradiso National Park.
