Chiusa di San Michele

Highlight • Settlement

Chiusa di San Michele is a small but charming village located at the gates of the Val di Susa in the province of Turin.
One of the places of interest is certainly the church of San Pietro Apostolo, built between the end of the eighteenth century and the beginning of the nineteenth century in neoclassical style.
From here, you can also see the Sacra di San Michele: the ancient abbey overlooks the village and stands on top of Mount Pirchiriano.
