Founded from some prehistoric villages populated by Ligurian and Celtic people, military camps with the name Augusta Taurinorum during Roman times, Turin lived a long and anonymous medieval period until 1563, when Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy made it the capital of his reign in place of Chambéry. For almost two centuries the city lived contested by Spanish and French ambitions until 1814 when the city returned definitively to the Savoys.

From that moment Turin became the centre of the Resurgence in Italy, playing a major role in patriotic conspiracies and the war for independence. Currently defined as the city of cars, certainly representing one of the cardinal points along with Milan and Genoa of the famous industrial triangle.

Turin is, however, also a city capable of attracting the attention of visitors interested in art and culture, and if it has lost its role as the capital, it has acquired that of the propelling motor of the national economy and a place able to preserve corners, such as the very old cafes, where time seems to have stopped at the exciting phases of the Resurgence.
