Above And Below

Piazzale Aldo Moro was an 'abandoned' area for a long time, then construction work began and for a long time it was working in progress.


The place is interesting because below the ground were hidden fragments of history, the remains of the foundations of the barracks of the cavalry of Carlo Emanuele I, and a large portion of one of the seventeenth century walls built to defend the city.

Now, the construction work has more or less completed and it is the university compound now, with restaurants and shops.

The most interesting aspect is the piece of ancient wall remains on the underground and the big opening above it which allow people to view the landmark, La Mole from below.
