The treasures of the Academy of Sciences

An afternoon in the baroque and scientific heart of Turin, designed to reveal the intellectual legacy of one of Europe’s most prestigious cultural institutions. The journey combines the discovery of manuscripts and historic volumes kept in the ancient Library of the Academy of Sciences with a walking tour of the city, searching for the traces, monuments, and homes of the great minds who made Savoyard science famous, from Joseph-Louis Lagrange to Giovanni Plana.
