Cavour, Municipality at the foothills of Rocca di Cavour in Piedmont, Italy

Located 40 kilometers southwest of Turin, Cavour extends across 48.96 square kilometers of land at an elevation of 300 meters above sea level.

The settlement began as Forum Vibii during Roman times and later became a strategic stronghold for the House of Savoy from 1422 onwards.

Local traditions center around the annual celebration of Saint Lawrence, which takes place on the first Sunday of August with regional food and festivities.

The municipality maintains essential services for its 5,495 residents and connects to Turin through an established network of regional transportation routes.

The town sits at the base of an isolated granite formation, the Rocca di Cavour, which contains remnants of ancient Roman settlements on its summit.
