Welcome! We are in the former convent of San Filippo Neri, an eighteenth century building, part of which are the baroque church and a chapel now used as an exhibition venue. The convent housed the Archbishop’s seminary from 1828 up until 1949. The student Giovanni Bosco, to whom the exhibition devotes a specific section, walked these same corridors. The history and the art of Chieri are told chronologically: Ancient, Medieval, Modern and Contemporary history.
