The Palazzo Carpano is situated opposite the Church of San Filippo. It is a beautiful example of Piedmontese baroque building, and was constructed by the architect Garove in 1686 and added to in the eighteenth century. At the beginning of the 1700's it was a meeting place for intellectuals from all parts of Italy. An interesting feature is the entrance atrium to the internal courtyard with its characteristic twisted pillars. It is only possible to make a visit if the owners are not present.
