On May 13 of 1706 Turin, the capital of the Duchy of Savoy, was besieged by the gallo-Hispanic troops, and the citadel was encircled during the war for the succession to the throne of Spain. After 117 days of resistance, in the Sept. 7 of 308 years ago, the imperial army commanded by Prince Eugene of Savoy, came to aid of his cousin Vittorio Amedeo II, dismiss, in a famous and bloody battle, the enemy forces and to liberate the citadel. The historical group Pietro Micca (named like the famous miner who defended with their lives the enemy advance in the tunnels into the city), produces annually over two days (Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 September), the historical re-enactment of this striking battle, with a detailed and faithful reconstruction of the uniforms, weapons and equipment of the old regiments of Savoy. Each maneuver or movement respects those reported on the old training manuals, is executed to perfection by the historical group and worthy of mention are the exercises with the military commands in ancient French language for the Royal Army of Louis XIV, the loading rifles flintlock, the use of cannons as heavy artillery and the artillery fire.
