Parco di Villa Revoltella is a lovely park on the city's outskirts where you can take a walk and at the same time admire the lovely villa that belonged in the 19th Century to Baron Pasquale Revoltella; a patron of art and culture. Like an alpine chalet and with its two floors, it was in this lovely building, which can no longer be visited, that the Baron spent his days relaxing. In the garden between a lovely fountain and a basket ball pitch popular among young people, you can also find the stables and Revoltella's private chapel, dedicated to the holy Spaniard Pasquale Baylon and where the remains of the Baron still lay. Inside the church, there are several Neo-Gothic style features to be admired.
