In this paper we give an historical presentation of the role of women at the Astronomical Observatory of Turin, showing their scientific work and interests, and how their role evolved with time. This exposition is put in its appropriate context with a short summary of the history of the Observatory. In the end we try to give a possible recount of the events that triggered the beginning of female participation in the research and the life of this institution and explain its peculiar character.
