Engage in an interactive walking tour of Turin that focuses on the city's esoteric history and the conflict between White and Black Magic. Participants will solve riddles to locate the Portone del Diavolo and learn about its mysterious background. The tour includes visits to significant locations such as Piazza Statuto, known as the "heart of darkness" and a former execution site. Travelers will search for Masonic symbols and stone eyes on building facades throughout the city. This experience is designed for those who enjoy self-guided exploration with the flexibility to start at sunset and take breaks, such as pausing for a Bicerin. There is no guide provided.
Statuto Square was once home to a Roman necropolis, a French execution site, and was the scene of a terrible fire in 1983. The fountain in the middle of the square was constructed in the memory of the workers who died digging the Frejus Rail Tunnel. Due to its fatal legacy, the square has been given the title “Black Heart,” as Turin’s most obscure area.
