Parella Castel in the Canavese area, reopens June 2017, returning to its antique glory after a long and attentive restoration which allowed to recover the original structures, pavement and materials. Where the recovery was not possible, local or national materials have been used with a previous authorization of the Piedmontese Soprintendenza per i Beni Architettonici e Monumentali. The castle halls’ XVII century original frescos have been recovered. The restoration project managed to combine the suggestive architectural, historical and cultural heritage with materials and high-design furniture of contemporary taste. This is represented by Le Suite, Alessio I restaurant, Alla Lettera Cafè and Alle Volte winehouse. The wise work of architects and designers gave a new life to a historical place, enriching it with warm and pleasant atmospheres.
