Teatro Carignano is one of Turin’s most historic and atmospheric theatres, a jewel of Italian Baroque architecture nestled just steps from Piazza Carignano. Built in the late seventeenth century and later redesigned in the eighteenth, it has long been a cultural landmark, hosting premieres, political gatherings and some of the greatest actors in Italian theatre. Its horseshoe‑shaped auditorium, adorned with gilded ornament and velvet furnishings, creates an intimate yet majestic setting that preserves the charm of traditional European playhouses. Today it serves as one of the main venues of the Teatro Stabile di Torino, presenting a rich programme of classical drama, contemporary works and international productions. Blending architectural beauty with a vibrant artistic life, Teatro Carignano remains a cornerstone of Turin’s cultural identity and a must‑visit for lovers of theatre and history.
