Turin reveals itself in all its beauty, in the magic of the evening, wearing its most fascinating and regal attire.
The spectacular Royal Palace and the majestic Palazzo Madama open their doors for an exclusive evening opening, offering a guided tour of extraordinary charm through the two symbolic palaces of the city.
An itinerary through Beauty and History on an enchanted night—a true “journey through time”—immersed in the magical atmosphere of Piazza Castello, crossing the thresholds of the most important Savoy residences.
For one night, as in the past, we will immerse ourselves in the timeless charm of Palazzo Madama and the Royal Palace during this extraordinary opening, reliving the atmosphere of an ancient and fascinating Turin.
Palazzo Madama will welcome us with its majestic façade, elegance, and opulence. A journey through the centuries across immense frescoed halls, rich in artworks, sumptuous furnishings, and captivating stories of its glorious past, filled with exclusive celebrations and receptions.
Discover the history, loves, intrigues, and court gossip of the Royal Madames Cristina and Maria Giovanna, who rose to power as regents yet left an indelible mark on the History and Architecture of Turin.
We will then explore the Royal Palace, from the Swiss Guards’ Hall to the Throne Room and the extraordinary Chapel of the Holy Shroud, uncovering hidden symbols, mythology, heraldic secrets, and the coded language of power…
A unique opportunity to admire these two UNESCO residences… all in one night.
✨ Saturday, March 7, on the occasion of International Women’s Day, the itinerary will be dedicated to the great female figures of the House of Savoy: queens, princesses, and duchesses who, through strategic marriages, refined cultural salons, and decisive political choices, influenced the destiny of the dynasty and the city. We will discover little-known curiosities, private passions, court rivalries, and the often surprisingly modern role of these women—silent yet decisive protagonists of Savoy history.
