\"palazzo<\/a>BAROQUE TURIN<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Turin enjoyed a wonderful period of splendour from the 17th century onwards, thanks to the Savoy dynasty who called the most important European architects to their capital to build the most wonderful buildings. The Baroque period provided the city with true jewels, including Cappella della Sacra Sindone<\/strong>\u00a0and the San Lorenzo<\/strong> church, and the Santuario della Consolata<\/strong>. The most important streets in the old city centre are also Baroque in style, including via Po<\/strong>, piazza Castello<\/strong> and piazza San Carlo<\/strong>. We can also name: Palazzo Reale<\/strong>, the Savoy family residence until 1865, Palazzo Madama<\/strong>, that is home to the Museo di Arte Antica, and Palazzo Carignano<\/strong>, the site of the first Italian Parliament after National Unity.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"venaria\"<\/a>TURIN OF THE SAVOYS<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Turin is the heart of the royal residences built by the Savoy dynasty in the 17th and 18th century: beautiful residences and wonderful villas are the basis of this \u201ccorona delle delizie\u201d. Along the banks of the Po, it is possible to visit Castello del Valentino<\/strong>, now part of the university and standing on a hill that looks down over the city, Villa della Regina<\/strong> , with its seventeenth and eighteenth century paintings. Also part of the \u201ccorona delle delizie\u201d are Castello di Rivoli<\/strong>, now the Modern Art museum, and Reggia di Venaria<\/strong>, which is often referred to as the Savoy family\u2019s \u201cVersailles\u201d. Palazzina di Caccia di Stupinigi<\/strong> and Castello di Moncalieri<\/strong>, one of the oldest residences, are also worthy of visits. The picture is completed by Castello di Agli\u00e8<\/strong>, in the province of Turin and Castello di Racconigi<\/strong>, in the province of Cuneo, with its hugely interesting nature park.<\/p>\n
