Location

Turin (Italy): exterior of the Lingotto.

 

Subject

The Lingotto compound was one of the production centres of FIAT, the renowned Italian motor company. The main building was famous because it had a track on the roof—about 1 km (3280 ft) long—which was used for testing cars. Nowadays the Lingotto it is no more a factory, and houses various activities: FIAT's management offices, an art gallery, an auditorium, a shopping mall, a branch of the Turin's Engineering School, a congress hall, and many others.
