Museo Nazionale del Cinema - Mole Antonelliana

Considered one of the world’s most important both for the richness of its collections and its exciting exhibitions, the National Museum of Cinema is located in the Mole Antonelliana, the building which especially symbolises Torino. With 3,200 m2 available on 5 floors, following the shape and philosophy of the Antonelli's work, the museum illustrates the history of cinema. It starts off displaying the 'shadow games' and first fascinating magic lanterns from the 1600's, which mark the beginning of the 7th arts - cinematography, working through to the most spectacular special effects seen today.
