- What was daily life like in Turin during Fascism and war?
- What has remained in the architecture, culture and in present history?
- How much did the English/American bombing change the city?
If you are intrigued by the idea of immerse yourself in the reality of Turin during the WWII and to see how Fascism crept into the city, this is the perfect tour for you.
We'll see and learn rationalist and post-war architecture, the symbols of the regime around the city, how and where people hided during bombing and my family stories that are not in the history books.
Not loving the long lists of (sometimes) boring and cold dates, I conceived the tour from the point of view of the people of Turin during the war, starting from 15 places of the city that were salient or strictly linked to the regime. At each stop we'll also talk about propaganda, deportations, hunger during the war, the upheaval both of society and even of the language, in a simple and interactive way.
Don't just expect to walk and listen: get ready to chat, discuss the past and present of Turin, way beyond what is on the surface. Consider me like your LOCAL FRIEND, not a guide!
I'll be at your complete disposal for any questions about Turin: what to visit, where to eat, transport, culture, language, etc. to make your experience as useful as possible.
Thus, since I'll also share with you my best tips to enjoy the rest of your stay, I suggest you to join me on your very first day, so you'll be able to skip all tourist traps
