This unusual structure is situated Valentino Park, not far from the Valentino castle. It was created for the 1884 exhibition and is a realistic reconstruction of what a 15th century Piedmontese village would have looked like. It shows such details as the craftsmen's workshops, the pomegranate fountain and the Landlord's castle, said to be inspired by the Fenis castle. These are most probably all copies of othe medieval buildings still in existence throughout Piedmont.
