Borgo medievale- Torre

Borgo medievale- Torre
Nonostante le apparenze, il Borgo medievale di Torino non fu costruito nel Tardo Medioevo, bensì tra 1882 e il 1884, in occasione dell’Esposizione Generale Italiana. A volerne la realizzazione fu un gruppo di intellettuali e artisti, che scelse di ispirarsi a chiese e castelli piemontesi e valdostani per riprodurre un borgo che sembrasse il più veritiero possibile. I materiali per la costruzione e i particolari degli edifici vennero studiati con cura e fin dal 1884 all’interno del borgo furono presenti diverse botteghe artigianali: il vasaio, il falegname, il fabbro, la tessitrice e altro ancora. Durante l’Esposizione Generale i bottegai indossavano tipici costumi medievali e diversi prodotti artigianali furono messi in vendita. Nonostante l’intero complesso fosse destinato alla demolizione al termine dell’Esposizione Generale, nel 1942 il borgo divenne un museo civico del tutto unico nel suo genere.

Despite appearances, the medieval village of Turin was not built in the Late Middle Ages, but between 1882 and 1884, on the occasion of the Italian General Exhibition. A group of intellectuals and artists commissioned the project and chose to draw inspiration from the churches and castles of Piedmont and Valle d'Aosta in order to reproduce a village that seemed as realistic as possible. The materials for the construction and the details of the buildings were studied with care and since 1884 there were several workshops in the village: the potter, the carpenter, the blacksmith, the weaver and more. During the General Exposition the shopkeepers wore typical medieval costumes and several handicraft products were put on sale. Although the entire complex was destined for demolition at the end of the General Exposition, in 1942 the village became a unique civic museum.
