Grugliasco (Italian: [ɡruʎˈʎasko]; Piedmontese: Grujasch [ɡryˈjɑsk] ⓘ) is a comune (municipality) in the Metropolitan City of Turin in the Italian region of Piedmont, about 9 kilometres (6 miles) west of Turin.
Grugliasco borders the municipalities of Turin, Collegno, and Rivoli. In 1945, members of the retreating German 34th Infantry Division and 5th Mountain Division murdered 68 civilians in retaliation for a partisan ambush in the town and in Collegno.
