Description
The landmark Mole Antonelliana in Turin, Northern Italy was once a synagogue but now houses the National Cinema Museum. Built in the 19th century and named after the man who designed it, Alessandro Antonelli, the spire of this great building is visible for miles around. It's title is very fitting, as, in Italian, the word 'mole' means 'a building of monumental proportions'. An elevator will take you to the viewing area where you can enjoy panoramic views of this great place that was Italy's first capital city. I blended a little texture with my original photograph.
