Beneath the bustling streets of Turin, the Pietro Micca Museum (Museo Pietro Micca) preserves a network of tunnels that played a crucial role in the city’s history. In 1706, these subterranean passages were instrumental in thwarting a French invasion, safeguarding Turin from capture. Today, visitors can explore the labyrinthine tunnels, gaining insight into the strategic and defensive measures of the past. The museum not only offers a glimpse into this pivotal moment but also provides a unique opportunity to experience the city’s hidden underground world.
