Sommergibile Andrea Provana
Sommergibile Andrea Provana is one of Turin’s most unusual and fascinating historical curiosities, a full‑scale submarine set within the Parco del Valentino as part of the city’s mid‑twentieth‑century naval memorials. Named after Admiral Andrea Provana di Leinì, a key figure in the Savoy fleet, the structure was created not for navigation but as an educational and symbolic installation celebrating Italy’s maritime heritage. For decades it captured the imagination of children and visitors, who were drawn to its distinctive silhouette and the sense of adventure it evoked. Although no longer accessible inside, the submarine remains an evocative reminder of a period when public parks embraced bold, imaginative monuments. Today it stands as a quirky landmark that blends history, memory, and playful curiosity within one of Turin’s most beloved green spaces.
Turin ItalySommergibile Andrea Provana, a preserved section of a historic World War I-era Italian submarine, is located in Parco del Valentino along the south bank of the Po River near Ponte Isabella, in Turin's San Salvario district, postcode 10125, Italy.

Nearby attractions include the majestic Castello del Valentino castle just west, the medieval-style Borgo Medievale village reconstruction, and the lush Botanical Garden, with easy tram access to vibrant San Salvario eateries, boutiques, and Torino Porta Nuova station.
