Palazzo Alfieri – Museo Alfieriano
Poet and playwright Vittorio Alfieri was born here in 1749, and the palazzo's rooms keep original furniture, family portraits and his birth room. The theatrical courtyard stands out, the audio guide is good, and the old cellars hold Eugenio Guglielminetti's stage sets. Entry is on the city museums' combined ticket.
