You'll find plenty of places to visit near Turin: Castello Sarriod de La Tour (in St. Pierre), Castello Reale di Sarre (in Sarre) and Castello di Verres (in Verres). And it doesn't end there: step into the grandiose world of Castello di Issogne, appreciate the extensive heritage of Aosta Old Town, examine the collection at Museo Nazionale dell'Automobile, and explore the ancient world of Criptoportico Forense.
