Comune di Bra

Bra è uno dei maggiori centri del Barocco Piemontese. Di grande impatto sono le imponenti costruzioni che si affacciano sulla vecchia piazza del mercato (oggi piazza Caduti per la Libertà), formando ideali cornici alla piazza stessa: il Palazzo Comunale, Palazzo Mathis, Palazzo Garrone e la chiesa di S. Andrea.
