Visiting Bra

Bra, an important agricultural centre and industrial hub of the province of Cuneo, is situated south of Turin. Rich in history and art, it is a privileged tourist destination. Its municipal territory is also home to the imposing Pollenzo Castle, that has recently been declared UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Hotels in Bra are the ideal accommodation facilities for those interested in spending both long holidays and short stays here. The modern and comfortable Bra's guest houses have developed considerable expertise in the sector of tourism and hospitality, and welcome tourists with the utmost courtesy and kindness. Bra is also scattered with charming farm houses, that distribute amidst the glorious surrounding countryside, and modern residences and vacation homes, the latter being the perfect solution for families with children and groups of friends.

Bra is a thriving city where history, traditions and lively cultural activities merge in pleasant harmony. The city centre is scattered with outstanding Baroque monuments that bear witness to the glorious vicissitudes experience by the city over the course of the centuries.
Bra's most curious church is St. Chiara, that was buitl in the eighteenth century by the famous architect Bernardo Vittone. Provided with a Greek cross plan, it is dominated by a huge central dome. The four naves are in turn surmounted by other domes, what contributes to give the whole structure a slender aspect. Another church worthy of mention is St. Andrea. Its single nave is embellished by sumptuous decorations, while the high altar is adorned with precious statues by Davide Calandra. Bra is also home to the Museum of History and Art, that is hosted inside a splendid medieval palace, and the Civic Museum of Natural History.
Bra is famous all over Italy for its tasty local staples. The two most famous ones are Bra DOP cheese and Bra sausage. Tourists flocking to Bra won't miss the possibility to visit the famous Pollenzo Castle, an impressive complex of rare beauty embellished by high bulwarks and exotic medieval architectures that was realized by the illustrious architect Pelagio Palagi. It is currently the seat of the University of Gastronomic Sciences.
