Why visit
Grugliasco is where Francesco Saverio Giai died, on 12 August 1801.
Origins and history
The first historical documents go back to 1047, when Emperor Henry III cites the cathedral chapter of San Giovanni in Turin with its rights over properties that included the curtis Grugliascum, with the already existing church dedicated to San Cassiano di Imola, and the tithe paid to the chapter by the inhabitants of the villa. The community chose as its heraldic symbol the bird called gru, the crane, attested for the first time in 1613. Grugliasco borders Turin and is part of its built-up area, in the metropolitan city of Turin.
