Cuneo Pop Up

Online

An itinerary in which the city's landmarks are narrated by illustrious local historical characters

Cuneo Pop Up allows people to discover the Piedmontese city and its history in an entertaining and interactive way. Realized with the participation of a group of actors and many Cuneo residents, who got involved and gave voice and body to illustrious characters from the city’s history through an artistic residency. 

The result is an itinerary in 5 stages, marked by the window stickers placed at the Town Hall, the Civic Tower, the Toselli Theatre, the Galimberti House Museum and the railway station. Each window sticker, through augmented reality, gives voice and body to illustrious figures from Cuneo history, such as Duccio Galimberti and Alice Schanzer, Giovanni Toselli, Severina Javelli, the young Cecilia and Maria Luisa Alessi.

The itinerary can be visited independently and it’s suitable for everyone.
