The Mayor of Turin is an elected politician who, along with the Turin’s City Council of 50 members, is accountable for the strategic government of Turin, northern Italy. Since 16 May 2011, Piero Fassino holds the position. Previously, the position was held by Sergio Chiamparino since 2001 until his succession by Fassino.
List
In 1814 the Kingdom of Sardinia created the office of the Mayor of Turin (Sindaco di Torino), chosen by the Turin's city council until 1848, when the mayors were chose directly by citizens. After the creation of the Kingdom of Italy, the Mayor of Turin was elected as continuation of the previous office created during the Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia. The Fascist dictatorship abolished mayors and City councils in 1926, replacing them with an authoritarian Podestà chosen by the National Fascist Party.
From 1945 to 1993, the Mayor of Turin was chosen by the City council. Since 1993, under provisions of new local administration law, the Mayor of Turin is chosen by popular election, originally every four, and since 2001 every five year.
