Asti, capital of the province of the same name, almost boxed in by the pressure of the provinces of Alessandria to the east, Turin to the west and Cuneo to the south, settled on the plain of the Tanaro river in the Piedmont region.
Mentioning Asti leads to the easy association of its famous spumante (sparkling) wine, exported all over the world, but of no lesser quality are its Malvasia, Brachetto or Barbera. The numerous food and wine fairs that Asti hosts make it a reference point for those who click their palates.
Piedmont cities, large or small, have always given us the impression of being elegant and refined.
Pedestrian areas, arcades and squares with outdoor tables and prestigious buildings are the main characteristics of the Piedmontese centers. Even the city of Asti is no different! So, let's find out what to see in the historic center of Asti.
The historic center is small in size and develops in the pedestrian area along Corso Alfieri: from Torre Rossa to Piazza San Secondo to Torre Troyana.
Everywhere you look in the center of Asti, you will see a tower! Historically it is called the "city of 100 towers" which actually seemed to be, in the past, even 120. The oldest of these is the Red Tower, dating from the 1st century Ad. It is said that it was part of the Roman gate to the city and that it was the last prison of the martyr San Secondo, who would later become the patron saint of the city of Asti.
The second story, which brought it to its current height, dates from the Middle Ages while the curious 16-sided shape is due to the original construction.
From the end of the 12th century, next to the Palace of the Governors, is the Trojan Tower (also called the Clock Tower). It is an imposing building with a square plan ordered to be built by the Troya family, from which it takes its name, and who ordered it to be adorned with dovetail battlements.
When around 1400 the building next to the tower became a government building, it became a civic tower and the great clock that still works was installed. The Bell placed at the top is one of the oldest in Piedmont and, in addition to marking the hours, it was used to announce the closing of shops, the beginning of schools or public executions in the square.
Of great charm, we said, among the things to see in Asti are the squares of the city. Like, for example, Piazza Roma, with the Comentina Tower rising from the Medici del Vascello Palace.
Or Piazza San Secondo where, between arcades and cafes, stands the Collegiate Church dedicated to the patron saint of the city. In fact, it was built on the site of the Saint's martyrdom that took place in the year 119 and the crypt, the oldest part, dates from the 9th century. Enlarged, rebuilt and modernized several times, it assumed its current features in the middle of the 13th century with works that ended in 1462.
Inside are 13th-century frescoes, various polyptychs, and the flags of the Palios, the banners that are still used today during the Patron Saint celebrations, culminating in the horse race in Piazza Alfieri.
The Church of San Secondo, around the 5th century, became too small to house the faithful but, above all, being built outside the city walls, it was no longer safe. For this reason, between the 5th and 6th centuries, the new Church of Santa Maria Assunta, today the city's cathedral, was built. Lombard Gothic in style, over 80 meters long, it is one of the largest churches in Piedmont.
Asti is a small but very pleasant town to visit; after a couple of hours of walking, also take advantage of one of the taverns in the center, sit down and quietly enjoy a robiola accompanied by one of the famous Piedmontese red wines. it will be the worthy conclusion of your visit!
