Comune di Alpette

Alpette is the town where Guiseppe and Giovanna were born and raised. It is 50 kms from Turin. Most of the homes now are used as vacation homes. There is an Astronomical observatory in the town. Some of the relatives of Guiseppe Goglio and Giovanna Seren Bernadone still live in the town
