Ivrea (Italian pronunciation: [iˈvrɛːa]; French: Ivrée, Latin: Eporedia) is a town and comune of the Metropolitan City of Turin in the Piedmont region of northwestern Italy. Situated on the road leading to the Aosta Valley (part of the medieval Via Francigena), it straddles the Dora Baltea and is regarded as the centre of the Canavese area. Ivrea lies in a basin that in prehistoric times formed a large lake. Today five smaller lakes — Sirio, San Michele, Pistono, Nero and Campagna — are found in the area around the town.

WHAT IS TECNOLOGIC@MENTE? It is both a museum and a laboratory. It is a museum which tells a part of the italian industrial history ,highlighting the Olivetti’s productions and culture. It is a laboratory turned first to the schools and the younger generations, to stimolate creativity and the desire of experiment, to imagine the future, but also to discover our history and roots.

Just a few steps off the beaten track there is a gem! Forget the renaissance part of the cathedral and head for the romanesque part around the altar and choir and the crypt. Marvelous arched architecture and remnants of frescoes from the XIII to the XV century. They all tell stories we have a hard time interpreting today. And yet, centuries ago, for people who couldn't read, they were like books. The crypt is stunning and one tries to imagine the candlelight services around which early Christians gathered. Do leave a penny in the collection box for restoration work.
