This impressive building was planned, actually, as a synagogue. However, the transferring of the capital to Florence forced the city planners to change the large-scale project. If you visit the Mole Antonellianam today, you will find the national film museum in it.

By the way, this building is illustrated on the Italian 2-cent coin what might probably underline its national significance. Beside the many worth seeing buildings, Turin fascinates of course with its typically Italian charm and the joy of life of the inhabitants. With a holiday apartment, pension or a hotel in this town, everybody can get an own picture of Turin.
