GLOSOLÍ

Since 2018 Ivrea became Unesco world heritage site because of the Olivetti industry and culture!

Glosolì is in the historic centre of Ivrea in front of the Teatro Giacosa; www.teatrogiacosa.it
It’s close to a wonderful nature of lakes, woods and mountains, the Anfiteatro Morenico di Ivrea and its 5 lakes and to the Alps, which can inspire artists and tourists.
Ivrea is part of the “Via Francigena”, the historical, cultural, spiritual and naturalistic pilgrimage leading to Rome from Canterbury;  www.viafrancigena.com.
Glosolì is in the town of the “Storico Carnevale di Ivrea” an interesting carnival, with the unique “battle of the oranges” which can become a thing to explore from an artistic point of view too; www.storicocarnevaleivrea.it, Glosolì is in the heart of the Carnival!
In Ivrea there is an open museum of Olivetti company’s architectures: www.mamivrea.it and www.maam.ivrea.it, the Archivio Storico Olivetti and Museo Tecnologicamente.
