Parco Europa, Garden in Turin, Italy

Parco Europa is a large green space set on the hills east of the Po River in Turin. The park offers several viewpoints and is connected by paths that link different areas together.

The land belonged to the Morelli di Popolo nobles before passing to the city. In 1737 Marquis Carlo Vincenzo Ferrero d'Ormea, minister of Vittorio Amedeo II and lord of Cavoretto, began a fortress here, but Carlo Emanuele III vetoed it as a military target. Pietro Bertolotti designed the park in the late 1950s; work began in 1954 and was completed in 1961 for the centenary of Italian unification, when it was named Europa.

The park's name changed from Parco di Cavoretto to Parco Europa in 1961, when it was completed for the centenary of Italian unification. On 31 May 2018 the city named a small square inside the park after the composer Leone Sinigaglia, who lived in Cavoretto.

The park lies between 315 and 368 m above sea level, about 6 km from central Turin, and is reached on foot from Piazzetta Freguglia. The arrival station of the cable car that once linked the park to the Italia '61 area still stands, heavily damaged. The northern part remains semi-natural, while the rest is laid out on stone terraces crossed by paths.

The cable car station that once linked the park to the Italia '61 district in Nizza-Millefonti still stands at the park's edge, badly damaged since the line closed in the mid-1960s. The park was completed in 1961 for the centenary of Italian unification, which is why it was named Europa.
