A Museum named after a war hero! The Pietro Micca Museum is dedicated to a seminal event in Turin’s history and the heroic actions of Pietro Micca, a soldier who took it upon himself to defend the city against an invading French army in 1706. The museum offers a detailed analysis of the siege, life in the besieged city, and the campaign's protagonists. However, the real attraction is the opportunity to explore an extensive network of tunnels that extend beneath the modern city.
