Parco di Stupinigi

Cistercian monks of the Abbey of Staffarda built the first settlement on the banks of the Sangone stream. At the end of the 1330s, the building passed to the Vagnone family, that lived in the Drosso until the end of the XV century, and turned the cistercian grange into a proper castle, equipped with towers, thus creating the so-called Drosso Castle.
