The two towers (red and white) that dominate the skyline have become the symbol of the town; they were built in 1930 at the behest of the founder of FIAT, Giovanni Agnelli, with the aim of providing a holiday resort for the workers of the FIAT factory in Torino. Sestriere is not only a winter ski resort; in summer, it is possible to play golf on Europe's highest 18-hole course and enjoy cycling and hiking.
