This guided tour of the UNESCO Creative City for Gastronomy touches on the most important buildings of the center of Roman origin, from the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, to the Romanesque-Gothic church of San Domenico, to the complex of the baroque church of Maddalena. And then along Via Cavour, with the Loggia dei Mercanti, passing through Piazza Pertinace and its Roman excavations up to the church of San Giovanni.
Among porphyry, tiles and bricks, in this city awarded the Gold Medal for Military Valor there will be no shortage of stories and tales linked to the partisan struggle, taken from the most beautiful pages written by Beppe Fenoglio, but also curiosities and anecdotes about the birth of the International White Truffle Fair of Alba and the Palio, the peculiar Donkey Race.
