Overview

Born in Turin and always lived in Turin, she knows all the most characteristic points of the Palace, the most important objects but also the most particular.
The Royal Palace, which has been the seat of the dynasty that ruled Piedmont and then Italy since the second half of the 16th century: the throne room, the alcove and the reception and party rooms.
A view of the Turin Cathedral, where the Holy Shroud is kept (closed in a glass case in a controlled atmosphere, it is NOT visible), from the top of the Chapel designed by Guarino Guarini, reopened in 2018 after a long restoration following the fire of 1997, with a description full of details and peculiarities.
The Royal Armory has one-of-a-kind exhibits from every era.

The Chapel of the Holy Shroud designed by Guarino Guarini and completed in 1683, destroyed by a terrible fire in 1997, is directly connected to the Royal Palace with an access corridor and offers a view of the Cathedral where the Holy Shroud is kept in the dark in a case in a controlled environment and atmosphere.
