Ivrea, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, represents a unique chapter in the industrial and cultural history of the 20th century. Founded by Camillo Olivetti in 1908, the city became the headquarters for the Olivetti company, known for its production of typewriters, mechanical calculators, and later, computers. Under the visionary leadership of Adriano Olivetti, Ivrea was transformed into a model industrial city, blending architectural innovation with social welfare principles, which are still evident in its urban fabric today.
