ALESSANDRIA

Let yourself be taken in the elegant Alessandria, city on the banks of the river Tanaro, the first tributary of the river Po, walking in Piazza della Libertà and admiring the town hall in the Palatium Vetus, or reach the Arco di Trionfo, taking some photographs of the Cathedral in the street neoclassical style.

For history buffs, the military citadel will be the culmination of the trip to Alessandria and its surroundings. Naturalists, on the other hand, will be able to admire the famous “Platano di Napoleone”, one of the largest monumental trees in Italy, planted by the French leader and cared for over the centuries.

The birth of the railways and the increase in trade in Northern Italy at the end of the nineteenth century transformed Alessandria into one of the nerve centers for the Italian market. Due to its position, between Turin, Milan and Genoa, the city experienced a great demographic increase, which led to an expansion of the city territory, and to an important industrial development, testified by the success of companies such as Paglieri cosmetics, Gandini perfumes. and, above all, Borsalino, whose production of characteristic felt hats became famous all over the world.
