Description
Well not Turin actuallyThis is the main portico of the Certosa of Collegno, in Turin's west suburbs.
Built during the XVII century, it was originally an abbey. In the XIX century it was restructured to become a psychiatric hospital. In the XX century, a law ordered the closure of all the psychiatric hospitals in Italy: since then, the Certosa hosts offices and various kinds of activities. It is surrounded by a beautiful park, a precious "green lung" at the gates of the city.
Full view recommended. Thanks for viewing.
