Mole Antonelliana

The Mole Antonelliana is Turin’s landmark building, a 167-meter tower with a distinctive spire that dominates the city skyline. The National Cinema Museum inside is paid. The panoramic elevator to the top is paid separately. The exterior and the surrounding streets are free. Budget travelers photograph the Mole from the Po riverbanks and from Via Po, decide whether the elevator view justifies the ticket, and marvel at a building that was originally designed as a synagogue and became a national symbol.
