Before becoming the residence of the Royal Madams, before the Savoy family, before the precious interventions of architect Filippo Juvarra, Palazzo Madama was a castle.
A castle with a thousand-year history, whose origins date back to Roman times, when the majestic Porta Decumana of the colony of Augusta Taurinorum stood here.
This forgotten and little-known history comes back to life in the exhibition Il castello ritrovato. Palazzo Madama dall'età romana al medioevo (The rediscovered castle. Palazzo Madama from Roman times to the Middle Ages), which can be visited in the Medieval Court of Palazzo Madama.
The exhibition shows the public the original appearance of parts of the building, which is too often identified only with the Savoy queens who gave it its name
