Palazzo Bricherasio, 17th century palace in Turin, Italy.

Palazzo Bricherasio is a 17th-century noble residence at Via Giuseppe Luigi Lagrange 20 in Turin, built in 1636 in the former Contrada dei Conciai. Count Luigi Baldassarre Cacherano di Bricherasio had the interiors and external facades remodelled by architect Barnaba Panizza in Neoclassical style after 1855. In 1937 Annibale Rigotti redesigned the gate and the facade facing the new Via Roma, and the building lost its front garden.

The palazzo was constructed in the 17th century and became an important location in Turin's development over subsequent centuries. In 1899, influential industrialists gathered here to establish the FIAT automobile company.

Sofia Cacherano di Bricherasio, a painter and pupil of Lorenzo Delleani, turned the palace into one of Turin's best-known cultural salons. Its receptions and exhibitions drew Delleani, sculptor Leonardo Bistolfi, writer Edmondo De Amicis and conductor Arturo Toscanini. The name comes from the Cacherano di Bricherasio counts, who owned it from 1855.

The building is centrally located in Turin on Via Lagrange near Piazza San Carlo and is easy to reach on foot. Hours follow the banking schedule of Banca Sella, which manages the property today.

In 1994 the gallerist Alberto Alessio bought the building and restored it as the Fondazione Palazzo Bricherasio; among its exhibitions, Christo and Jeanne-Claude wrapped the entire grand staircase. The foundation closed in 2009, and in 2010 Banca Sella bought the palazzo, which had risked being divided into luxury flats, for its private banking headquarters.
