1848 - Cavour at the Cambio and Bicerin


1848 - Cavour at the Cambio and Bicerin
In Turin, located right opposite Palazzo Carignano, home to the Subalpine Parliament from 1848 to that of Italy from 1861, all the great names of the Unification of Italy were patrons at Caffè Ristorante del Cambio, which still has the table where Camillo Benso, Count Cavour, the first prime minister of the Kingdom of Italy used to sit. But when he accompanied the Savoys to the Holy Mass at the Santuario della Consolata, Cavour used to go to the Bicerin to await them: here too his table still remains.
