Join us to explore a rare example of a late 19th-century workers' village, born from the dream of Napoleone Leumann. This extraordinary neighborhood in Collegno represents an enlightened vision of social well-being, designed to offer the workers and employees of the Leumann factory a complete and autonomous living environment.
Guided by volunteers from the Friends of the Leumann School Association, you'll discover a village that includes all the services designed for the daily life of the workers: from homes to kindergartens, from public baths to the theater, to the church and recreational clubs. Strolling through the village streets, you'll relive the history of a community that, for its time, was at the forefront of ensuring quality of life and social support.
An unmissable opportunity to rediscover an important chapter in Piedmont's industrial history and Italian labor.
