Alba — Centro Storico & Torri Medievali
Piedmont
Alba, famous today for its white truffle market, once had dozens of medieval defensive towers built by competing noble families, several of which still stand scattered through the historic centre. Flat streets link the towers and the market squares, distinct from the vineyard-village walks in the surrounding Langhe hills.
