After driving the city’s industrial growth providing train maintenance for almost a century, in the 1990s OGR Torino’s 35,000-sqm structure lay abandoned, taken over by wild plants. In 2013, Fondazione CRT bought the building and began redevelopment led by Secretary General Massimo Lapucci. In 2017, OGR Torino reopened as an inclusive space that celebrates contemporary culture. It welcomes visitors with site-specific art, music events and projects developed with international partners, and has created a strong business acceleration hub for an ecosystem of startups, scaleups and companies. Ours is a space in constant renewal, inviting everyone to get to discover more – even with a simple moment of relaxation, in our all-day-long restaurant and café.
