Mole Antonelliana

La Mole Antonelliana is one of the tallest works of masonry in Europe standing at 167.5 meters (550 feet). It was planned by Alessandro Antonelli as a synagogue in the second half of the 19th century. The square-based construction presents its facade towards Via Montebello, and the quadrangular dome is mounted by a little temple with two columns which hold up the spire. This spire was rebuilt in 1953 after its collapse during a violent storm, and it was remodeled in metal overlaid with stone. The Mole Antonelliana also houses the National Museum Of Cinema.

Museo dell'automobile

Originally arranged by Carlo Biscaretti di Ruffia, the Museo dell'automobile was moved to its current modern building in 1960. The collection is unique in Europe, and deals with the evolution of the car, starting with the first Italian carriages, including that of Bernardi from 1896 and Fiat in 1899 and ends in the 1980's. There are also some interesting models of luxury cars and a section reserved for racing cars.

Basilica della Consolata

Construction on this church began in 1679 under Guarino Guarini. The foundations were laid on the site where the church of Saint Andrea previously stood with its hexagonal presbytery. After the death of Guarini, Juvarra designed the dome upon which Bortoloni's fresco was painted. The 11th century Romanesque tower belonged to the previous church and now sits on the right hand side of the Basilica's facade. The church is decorated with many valuable marbles, most of which were votive offerings. The impressive marble floor is one of the main talking points of this church. Next to the Basilica della Consolata stands a 25 meter high dedicatory column. A statue of the virgin Mary was placed on top in 1835 as a thank you to the Madonna for keeping at bay the dreaded plague which devastated Europe that year.
