Coming to Biella as part of a longer trip and looking for things to do and see here in a day? Small though it may be, Biella encloses many a cultural attraction. Its historic center unfolds along a rocky crag overlooking the pre-alpine valleys all around. This Medieval core, named “Piazzo”, also treasures later edifices dating back to the Renaissance, such as Palazzo Gromo-Losa and Palazzo Ferrero, which are worthy a visit for the beautiful view they offer onto the city.
Biella’s lower part, called Biella Piano, lacks a unitary style as it resulted from additions being made in many different eras, including modern times. Nonetheless, you will also find historically relevant buildings here, such as the Romanesque baptistery of San Giovanni Battista with its frescoed vaults.
The city features many ancient traditions pertaining the areas of food and textiles: alongside with being famous for it typical cheeses and cold cuts, Biella has also been famous for the production of wool ever since the Middle Ages, which is why it has recently received the UNESCO Creative City award. If you’d like to know more about this, you can visit the Biellese Territory Museum, which gathers findings dating back to as far as the Neolithic and also includes an Egyptian wing with artifacts borrowed from the Turin Egyptian Museum.
Slightly more than a hour’s drive from Turin and Milan and 50 minutes from Novara, Biella is placed at the intersection between the most important economic centers in the regions of Piedmont and Lombardy.
