Mole Antonelliana
Cultural siteTurinAbout 2 hours
The spire on every Turin postcard, built as a synagogue, finished as nothing in particular, and now holding the national cinema museum. A glass lift runs up the middle of the hall to a viewing deck with the Alps across the rooftops. The museum spirals around and below it and is far better than a building-with-a-lift deserves.
