Monuments and places of interest

In Piazza Guglielmo Marconi, the central square, there is the first Italian monument erected in honor of the king Umberto I of Italy and immediately behind an oak planted in honor of the queen.
The village is divided into two districts, the "Gui" and the "Riva" and a fraction, the "Cascine Cuffia". The latter are detached from the village and are at the bottom towards the plain, the "Gui" is the lower part of the real village and the "Riva" the highest part and includes the Sanctuary of the Beata Vergine Addolorata (Cuceglio), built between the 1747 and the 1758.[2] From there is visible most of the flat land of "canavese", up to Turin.
