The Wine Bank – Pollenzo
A truly unique initiative, destined to change the way we approach wine: the historical cellars where Francesco Staglieno first defined modern winemaking methods for Piedmont’s great red wines – no less than 2,500 square meters – now showcase bottles from the most prestigious winemakers in Italy. A real museum of wine of excellence.

The University of Gastronomic Sciences
The University of Gastronomic Sciences was founded in 2004 in Pollenzo, a hamlet in the Bra municipality. The university’s Committee was formed on 27 January 2003 with the endorsement of Slow Food founder, Carlo Petrini: it was the first step towards opening the new campus, where classes began on 4 October 2004. Today, the university is an international hub focused on education and research for sustainable agriculture, as well as on the study and preservation of bio-cultural diversity, through an interdisciplinary approach.

Circolo del Design

An open, inclusive and engaging space, ready to tell the stories, present the people and showcase the companies that shaped its territory’s identity. 
A project of insatiable research for the contemporary and the experimental, for the players that have led and supported the avant-garde in various design fields. 
A rich and diverse schedule of conferences, exhibitions, workshops and special projects within a multi-functional hub – including a store with a carefully curated selection of products and a design library offering a variety of contemporary publications.

OGR – Officine Grandi RiparazioniThe OGR – Officine Grandi Riparazioni are a majestic industrial complex dating back to the late 1800s. Built at the very heart of Turin, they were at the center of the city’s growth for approximately one century. After being shut down in the early 1990s, it took one thousand days of renovation to bring them back to life, as an engine for creativity, culture and entertainment always open to the international scene. In 2019 the OGR became a “factory” of knowledge, a workshop dedicated to research and innovation in the digital, creative and social contexts. A new hub for scientific, technological and industrial research, with the standing to attract major international partners and specialized operators from the whole world.The tour will also stops for a visit of OGR Tech!
