What shocking message echoed through Valentino Castle on the eve of political rebellion? Why did artists once risk everything inside Turin Exhibitions’ glittering halls? And which curious experiment right along Corso Vittorio Emanuele II left historians baffled for decades?

Trace hidden alliances, unresolved mysteries, and the pulse of innovation as you move from grand boulevards to secret corners. Each step unlocks a new layer of Turin’s restless spirit and its penchant for reinvention.

Begin the journey—dare to walk where secrets have long waited. The next discovery is just ahead.
