About Asti

We stopped in Asti for lunch and a visit to the D. Barbero Choccolateria. We had a tour of nougat making or as it is on the web page: Torrone. We saw the hazel nuts and pistachios cut up and prepared for the nougat. We saw the white foamy nougat being mixed and then hand kneaded, later cut in various sizes, packaged and prepared for sale. We enjoyed lots of samples of nougat and their famous chocolate. Wonderful smells and tastes here. Open only during religious ceremonies, the Chiesa di Santa Caterina opens onto a lovely piazza with benches for taking in the sunshine. At the rear of the church is the Torre Rosso, one of the city's medieval towers. This building was donated to the city in 1558 by Emanuele Filiberto, the Savoy duke who made nearby Torino the permanent Piemontese capital. Inside the main doors there are changing civic exhibits highlighting the changes and upgrades being made around the city. Formerly a private residence, Palazzo Ottolenghi (House of Eight Woods) is now a government building. Apparently it has a beautiful courtyard but it was not accessible on Saturday. As it is a civic building, visitors may have more luck viewing the courtyard on business days, or try the number above for information about organizing a visit. Piazza Medici features the beautiful Fontane della Acquadotto, a sculpture made in 1908, as well as one of the city's historic towers (and a parkade). If you're out for a stroll in Asti, this piazza is worth passing through.
