Piedmont is one of the largest regions in Italy. It almost entirely covers the northwestern section of Italy. Turin, the province capital, is one of the most beatiful cities of Europe. For centuries it was the capital of the Savoy Dynasty and, for a brief period, also of united Italy. Ancient Savoy residences such as the Royal Palace, Madama Palace, Carignano Palace, and Valentino Castle grace its old city centre, while its collections in the Egyptian Museum, Royal Armory, and numerous art museums have enriched its artistic patrimony. However, the capital of Piedmont is also one of the strongholds of advanced technology in Europe as well as one of its most important industrial centres. Othes Savoy residences the Stupinigi Hunting Lodge, the Racconigi and Aglie Castles, and many other monuments of this dynasty that loved beatiful things - dot the fertile countryside. The Ranverso, Vezzolano, and Novalesa Abbeys, the Sant'Andrea Basilica in Vercelli, the Turin Cathedral which hosts the Sacred Shroud, and the numerous Sacred Mounts are just a few of the most important religious monuments of Piedmont, testimonies of centuries of history.
