About Alessandria
Alessandria: Piedmontese Crossroads and Borsalino Country
Alessandria sits in southern Piedmont, roughly 90 km east of Turin and 80 km southeast of Milan, at the confluence of the Tanaro and Bormida rivers. Founded in 1168 as a Lombard League stronghold against Frederick Barbarossa, the city retains a serious, working character distinct from Piedmont's wine-tourism hubs. Its greatest export is the Borsalino hat, manufactured here since 1857 — the factory museum on Corso Cento Cannoni traces the fedora's rise from local felt workshops to Hollywood wardrobes.
Where to Stay in Alessandria
Hotels concentrate around Piazza della Libertà, the broad arcaded square at the city's heart, and along Via Dante toward the rail station. The Cittadella, one of Europe's largest 18th-century star fortresses, anchors the western edge of the centro storico and is a 15-minute walk from most central hotels. Business travelers arrive for the regional trade fairs; weekend visitors use Alessandria as a base for Monferrato wine country, the Barolo vineyards lying about 60 km south.
Practical Tips
- Getting there: Alessandria station sits on the Milan–Genoa and Turin–Genoa rail lines; direct trains from Milan Centrale run in under 1 hour.
- Local transport: The centro storico is walkable; taxis serve the Cittadella and outlying districts.
- Climate: Summers reach 32 °C; pack a layer for cool Po Valley evenings in spring and autumn.
