Pinerolo, key and bridle of Italy for 120 years 1536-1574, 1630-1696, 1798-1814 was

Fouquet, the French finance Minister, who was escorted by d’Artagnan and the Musketeers and the mysterious personage who went down in history as the ‘
Iron Mask’, around whom rumours circulate, none of which are sufficiently certain.
