La Mole


The Mole is one of the most famous monument of Turin. It's was originally intended as a synagogue, but now it hosts the Museum of Cinema. Antonelli (the architect who projected the Mole) increased the final height several times during the building. This resulted in the Mole being the highest building of it's type in Europe (167 meters). Unfortunately it as all sorrounded by other buildings and it is not very easy to find a good framing.
