The park originated from the historic nursery gardens of the 19th-century Villa Boriglione.
The site was converted into a cultural park in the early 2000s to revitalize Grugliasco's industrial and agricultural legacy.
The 'Serre' (greenhouses) serve as the architectural centerpieces, blending historical preservation with modern event infrastructure.
The area hosts the annual GruVillage 105 Music Festival, which utilizes the park's outdoor arena facilities.
Parco Culturale Le Serre is a multifunctional public space situated in Grugliasco, repurposed from the historic greenhouse structures of the former Villa Boriglione estate. It serves as a community hub hosting the GruVillage music festival, theater performances, and various cultural exhibitions. The park features restored architectural elements from the late 19th-century nursery site. Its grounds are managed to provide both recreational green spaces and venues for professional workshops. The site acts as the administrative and operational headquarters for several local non-profit and cultural associations. It is physically integrated into the urban fabric of Grugliasco, providing a bridge between the town's agricultural history and its contemporary cultural identity.

Check the official website calendar before visiting, as the park often hosts private events or ticketed concerts that may restrict access to certain areas.
Explore the periphery of the park to view the restored historic brickwork of the original greenhouses.
Wear comfortable walking shoes, as the paths are primarily gravel and dirt.
Do not expect a traditional botanical garden; it is a cultural and event space rather than a floral exhibition.

Maintain noise levels during cultural events; smoking is restricted to designated outdoor zones.
