Royal Palace of Turin
The Royal Palace of Turin, the former seat of the House of Savoy, stands at the heart of the city as one of Italy’s most elegant Baroque residences. Built from the late sixteenth century and expanded over the following centuries, it reflects the power and taste of the Savoy dynasty, who transformed Turin into a European capital. Its grand façade, refined state apartments and richly decorated halls reveal layers of artistic patronage, while the nearby Chapel of the Holy Shroud and the Royal Gardens complete the monumental complex. Today the palace forms the core of the Musei Reali, offering visitors an immersive journey through royal life, political history and extraordinary craftsmanship. Recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it remains one of Turin’s most compelling cultural landmarks, admired for its architecture, collections and enduring historical significance.
