What to do and see in Caselle Torinese

Caselle Torinese is a commuter town known in the region primarily for hosting Turin’s nearest and largest airport. For international travellers, it’s a welcome stopover to rest, enjoy the local cuisine and immerse themselves in the history of Italy. In Caselle Torinese, you may see horse-drawn wedding carriages trotting on these cobblestone streets alongside tractors and luxury sports cars.

Locals take pride in the rich ecclesiastical history of Caselle Torinese, though this commune’s church tourism is subdued. People are welcome to visit the town’s numerous places of worship, which are part of the fabric of the community. These places often blend in with the scenery. A chapel with murals dating back to the 15th century, Cappella della Madonna del Pilone lies at a crossroads. Its belfry is the only giveaway of its historical significance.

A must-see is Chiesa dei Battuti, with its grand organ and high altar, once a gathering place for a local brotherhood that tended to the sick. A stone’s throw away lies the splendid Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta, whose name was first raised in official records in 1,252. It boasts frescoes, domes and an antique crucifix. The Chapel of the Holy Trinity and Chiesa di S. Giovanni Evangelista are no less deserving of admiration.

As the day draws to a close, there is still time to unwind with a relaxing massage and salt spa at the La Fenice (The Phoenix) salt cave. On some weekends, Sala Fratelli Cervi delights the community with professional renditions of dramatic plays. Finally, the Three Wolf gastro-pub can soothe the aches of a long sightseeing day with steak, lasagne and maybe even some live entertainment.

There’s much to see in Caselle Torinese, but more still in nearby Turin. The city’s Egyptian Museum, its most popular tourist attraction, is less than 16 kilometres away. It displays the only complete collections of Egyptian artefacts outside of Cairo. Only a 7-minute walk from the museum, Turin’s cathedral is the seat of the Archbishop of Turin and the sanctuary of the Holy Shroud. Right next door lies the Royal Palace, revealing for over 5 centuries the wealth and power of the House of Savoy through opulent weaponry, armoury and livery.

On the opposite side of the Giardini Reali awaits the revered 19th-century Mole Antonelliana, former synagogue and current cinema museum. It boasts panoramic city views accessible to all via lift. Just as iconic, accessible and family-friendly is the Stadio Olimpico Grande. It’s where Torino F.C. fans come to show support, tour the arena and visit the built-in museum. These are just some of the landmarks and sights visitors can enjoy when they avail themselves of car rental in Caselle Torinese.

Driving in Caselle Torinese

Driving in Caselle Torinese isn’t much of a challenge, considering the low altitude, the decent state of the town’s roads and its access to the Racordo Autostradale Torino-Caselle. This motorway has connections to several provincial roads and local offshoots. However, visitors who are not familiar with the town’s narrow cobbled streets would do well to plan their routes ahead of time or look up streets that are off-limits after booking their car rental in Caselle Torinese.

Motorists are also advised that Caselle Torinese is a low-emission zone with traffic limitations in place for vehicles that do not meet the EURO3 emission standard. The MOVE IN project, which has been running in Piemonte since 2021, will also monitor vehicle access using a black box and limit it based on category and fuel type. Drivers are advised to familiarise themselves with the colour-coded emission system and use the official Move-In app to check compliance before driving. Reputable companies that provide car and van rental in Caselle Torinese will offer compliant city cars and vans only.

Visitors driving in Caselle Torinese and the Piemonte region may also find that many Italian towns have pedestrian areas, some of which are monitored via CCTV. In general, only pass holders may transit pedestrian areas, but some areas are available to drivers at night.

In Italy, motorists drive on the right-hand side of the road. The national limit is 128 km/p on the motorway, but snow and adverse weather may bring it down locally. In built-up areas and some rural roads, limits may go as low as 30 mph. Visibility and manoeuvrability may be reduced in rainy or snowy conditions. It’s best to drive with dipped headlights at night and bring snow chains or snow socks for high altitudes.
