In the northwest of Italy, the donkey race Palio degli Asini in Alba is well-known far beyond Piedmont. Jockeys and their long-eared, stubborn mounts compete around the San Lorenzo Cathedral in duels for the prize of a large, intricately designed banner.
The Castle of Grinzane Cavour probably dates back to the 13th century. Over the centuries, it changed owners several times and is now a noble residence. The highlight inside the castle is the splendid Hall of Masks with its detailed coffered ceiling.
The Museo del Cioccolato di Silvio Bessone is a small private museum. It is connected to the in-house chocolate factory. Here, all lovers of sweet delicacies are in the right place to trace the journey of cocoa beans to the finished chocolate.
The Piazza del Duomo has always been a meeting place for those who enjoy life. Since the Gothic cathedral was expanded between the 12th and 15th centuries, the square in front has been the center of social life. People meet here at any time of day and night.
In the Langhe region of Piedmont, Alba is also known as the city of 100 towers. One of them is the tall bell tower of the San Lorenzo Cathedral, which was built in the 15th century in the Gothic-Lombard style and is dedicated to the patron saint of Alba.
