The city centre view<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The history of the city of Alba<\/strong> is very long: 8000 years<\/strong> have passed since the Neolithic Age<\/strong>, when the first men decided to stay in these places to create the prehistoric village<\/strong> which will survive, with different forms depending on the epoch, until the arrival of Romans<\/strong>. The meeting with the Roman state will produce epochal  changes<\/strong> within the city: in 89 b.C Alba obtained the citizenship under Latin law and took the name of Alba Pompeiana<\/strong>, radically transformed. After the fall of the Roman Empire <\/strong>we assist to the arrival of new populations, like that of Lombard, and to the appearance of the first churches<\/strong>. In the following centuries<\/strong>, Alba reached its maximum glory and, after some vicissitudes, it was able to proclaim itself Free City<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this stage, the city took on that characteristic appearance which still distinguishes the city centre: the typical alleys<\/strong>, high towers and aristocratic palaces made Alba a typical medieval city<\/strong>. During the Renaissance, Alba lost its status of independent city and passed under of different dominations<\/strong> to get definitively under the control of the Savoy<\/strong>. In the XIX century the city became the theatre of new transformations: the intervention of the architect Brusca <\/strong>transformed some squares into real salons with a neoclassical taste<\/strong>, a style well recognised in the fa\u00e7ade of the city theatre.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n
