Palazzo Tornielli of Crestvolant is located in Molare, in Piedmont, not far from Ovada and Alessandria, where the medieval castle of Ottone del Bosco once stood. The ancient fortification was built around the XIIIth century by the Aleramici family, then passed to the Del Bosco family and later to the Malaspina family.
An unmissable destination in Piedmont
Palazzo Tornielli, built starting from 1834 at the behest of Count Celestino Tornielli – whose family was present in Molare as early as the 16th century – stands out for its majestic neoclassical façade, punctuated by two turrets and a protruding portal with an upper balcony, which closes one side of Piazza Conte Tornielli, contained in a splendid square composed – on the other sides – from the Farmer’s House, from the Stables and the Palazzetto. Definitely a symbol of art and culture in Italy.
Inside it stands the imposing double staircase, and the triumphal arch – with family crest – from which you access the Ballroom. On the ground floor there is the Bishop’s room, with the splendid ceiling decorated in pure gold and the 18th century canopy bed in red damask. In addition, the building preserves the frescoes by the painter Ignazio Tosi, also the author of the family portrait, exhibited in the ground floor hall, and the decorations that echo the Renaissance.
All this allows the Tornielli of Crestvolant to enter by right in the category of the best tradition of Italian palaces, as well as of Piedmont.
