Piossasco

Piossasco combines the calm of a small town with the steep slopes of Monte San Giorgio in a way that reflects its position on the Piedmont plain southwest of Turin. The mountain rises directly behind the built-up area, giving this part of the Turin metropolitan region an unexpectedly close connection to woodland and hillside paths. On its slopes stand the remains of Castello dei Nove Merli, a medieval fortress associated with the local Piossasco family. Beyond the town, the flatlands lead toward Turin while the wider Alpine arc defines Piedmont’s horizon.
