Lingotto complex, the headquarters of the Italian auto giant
Fiat S.p.A. founded in 1899 by
Giovanni Agnelli. As part of the complex, Lo scrigno, a 450 square-metre steel structure designed by
Renzo Piano, is raised 34 metres off the test track on the roof of the plant.

[5] Its style represents a crystal spaceship, referring back to the original building's futuristic style. Its permanent collection is a selection of paintings and sculptures from
Gianni and
Marella Agnelli's private collection, such as
Pierre-Auguste Renoir's
Blonde Bather and
Édouard Manet's
La Négresse, as well as paintings by
