An incredible history that will be restored to life again thanks to incredible people in Alessandria and the EU ! I went early and was alone -It was fantastic as is the city it protected.

No vale la pena visitarlo, esta abandonado con mucha decadencia, lo único que vale la pena es el parque con unos bancos para descansar. Solo ves parades agrietadas y zonas por donde no se puede pasar porque lo tienen cerrado por peligro de derrumbe. Es una pena que este así y nadie haga nada para restaurarlo. (Translated by Google) It is not worth visiting, it is abandoned with a lot of decay, the only thing worth it is the park with some benches to rest. You only see cracked walls and areas where you cannot pass because they have it closed due to the danger of collapse. It's a shame that it is like this and no one does anything to restore it.

Very disappointed how neglected this place is. Not recommended!

Un lugar histórico para la región. Una original construcción para la época. Además del museo hay mucho espacio para la recreación al aire libre. (Translated by Google) A historic place for the region. An original construction for the time. In addition to the museum there is plenty of space for outdoor recreation.

If you likes big buildings…not my cup of tea, need to be combined with exposition or any other activity to makes it more interesting. And you jave a lot of space for this.

Such a shame that this site has been left to ruin. We walked around the main square as that was as much as you had access to. Main entrance was closed so wasn't able to go inside.

Can you immagine a better place where to talk about the story of Jossua and the walls of Jericó?

No vale la pena visitarla, está en completa decadencia y abandono. Solo hay un pequeñísimo museo militar y el resto son estancias abandonadas, cerradas y sin ningún tipo de interés. La vista aérea debe ser muy buena por que es la única forma de ver las murallas de traza italiana. No vayan. (Translated by Google) It is not worth visiting, it is in complete decay and abandonment. There is only a very small military museum and the rest are abandoned rooms, closed and without any interest. The aerial view must be very good because it is the only way to see the Italian-style walls. Do not go.

best place to make nordic walking, yep but it is completely abandoned by the local municipality. It can be dangerous too. There are huge holes in the ground particularly close to the ancient buildings. In another country such as UK, there will be schools visiting the structure every day and a ticket to enter.

Such a nice place to walk, do jogging or just relax, have picnic and get tanned. No lights, so the best time to visit it is before sunset. No bars or water fontains, so bring water with you. Cheers.

Very old town

(Translated by Google) It is one of the most significant buildings in Alessandria, and represents an essential historical reference point for the city. It was designed by the architect Benedetto Alfieri (1699 - 1767), one of the greatest exponents of Piedmontese Baroque architecture, and built between 1730 and 1733. Although it was completed in the following century, the architectural lines are unmistakably late Baroque. Overall, Palazzo Ghilini is still one of the greatest achievements of eighteenth-century civil construction. (Original) Si tratta di uno dei palazzi più significativi di Alessandria, e rappresenta un punto di riferimento storico imprescindibile per la città. Fu progettato dall'architetto Benedetto Alfieri (1699 - 1767), fra i maggiori esponenti dell'architettura barocca piemontese, ed eretto fra il 1730 ed il 1733. Anche se venne completato nel secolo successivo, le linee architettoniche sono inconfondibilmente tardobarocche. Nel complesso Palazzo Ghilini è ancora oggi una delle massime realizzazioni dell'edilizia civile del Settecento.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful 18th century Alessandria stately palace, commissioned by the Marquis Tommaso Ottaviano Antonio Ghilini (1667-1748), designed by his nephew Benedetto Alfieri and then continued by the architect Giovanni Battista Gianotti. The construction of the palace began with the main body of the building which was built under the direction of Domenico Caselli and finished in 1732. Subsequently, in 1766, the northern part towards Via Pontida was built and only towards the middle of the 19th century was the south wing overlooking via Parma. which belonged to the family until it was sold to the state, after the restoration it effectively became the Royal Palace until 1869, when it was purchased by the province to make it the headquarters of its services and the seat of the Prefecture. The majestic facade and atrium are worth admiring: majestic interiors but can only be seen on rare and special occasions. (Original) Bellissimo palazzo signorile del '700 alessandrino, voluto dal marchese Tommaso Ottaviano Antonio Ghilini (1667-1748), progettato dal nipote Benedetto Alfieri e poi proseguito dall'architetto Giovanni Battista Gianotti. La costruzione del palazzo ebbe inizio dal corpo principale dell'edificio che venne realizzato sotto la direzione di Domenico Caselli e terminato nel 1732. In seguito, nel 1766, fu costruita la parte settentrionale verso via Pontida e solo verso la metà del XIX secolo l'ala sud che si affaccia su via Parma. appartenuto alla famiglia fino alla cessione allo stato, dopo la restaurazione divenne di fatto il Palazzo Reale fino al 1869, quando fu acquistato dalla provincia per farne sede dei propri servizi e sede della Prefettura. Da ammirare la maestosa facciata e l'atrio : interni maestosi ma si possono vedere solo in rare e particolari occasioni.
