Parco della Rimembranza

The park extends over 90 hectares at the highest point of Turin's hills, featuring 45 kilometers of paths through 21,000 trees of various species.

King Victor Emmanuel III inaugurated the park on September 20, 1925, dedicating it to 4,787 Turin soldiers who died during World War I.

Each tree in the park carries a memorial plaque with the name of a fallen soldier, creating a living monument that combines nature with remembrance.

The park provides multiple walking trails and viewing points at 715 meters above sea level, offering clear views of Turin and the Western Alps.

The Victory Lighthouse, a bronze statue commissioned by Senator Giovanni Agnelli in 1928, stands at the summit as a guiding beacon for the city.
