Preferred square of the noble families of Turin, ideal to admire the 2 beautiful baroque twin churches

Built in 1640, it was initially used as a grain market and arms market. However, due to its undeniable grace, it became the favourite place of the noble families of Turin, considered the "salon" of the city. Surrounded by beautiful arcades that house some of the city's finest historic cafés. Admire the two beautiful baroque twin churches, Santa Cristina and San Carlo. Finally, look for the small frescoes dedicated to the Holy Shroud located at the four corners of the square.

Plein la vue !
Jolie place où l'on peut encore voir la trace d'un boulet de canon qui a percuté l'une des façades des bâtiments entourant la place. Véritable lieu d'Histoire, c'est un endroit sympa pour se poser et manger un bout dans l'un des deux restaurants sur le côté gauche de la place. Je ne recommande pas celui sur le côté droit (Makita Café) où les plats ne sont vraiment pas bons (escalopes milanaises telles des semelles de chaussure, pâtes avec des sauces industrielles, etc.) et prix des boissons exorbitants !

Sans doute la plus belle place de Turin, très propre de surcroît. Les arcades sont magnifiques, les églises et les statues aussi. Cette place nous transporte vraiment dans une autre époque.

Très belle place sur laquelle on ne sait plus où donner de la tête. Cherchez le taureau sous les arcades, il porte bonheur !
Edit 2019: depechez vous de trouver le taureau avant qu il ne disparaisse.
