One of the oldest of the Savoy residences, the Castle of Moncalieri, located just a short way from Torino, rises in all its restrained monumentality to guard the River Po.
Built in the medieval period for defence purposes, it was transformed by the Savoy into a “place of delight” by extensive enlarging and embellishing.
Much loved by the women in the House of Savoy, such as Queen Marie Adelaïde and the princesses Clotilde and Laetitia, the castle was a place for holidays, where the education of the young princes was imparted and also the setting for ludic events: fragments of history and reminders of the family still linger in the royal apartments, connected to the huge park that extends over the hill.
SAFETY RULES:
The castle can be visited upon a compulsory reservation, so as to make limited entrances in groups of up to 8 people. The adoption of the safety measures imposed by the state of health emergency entails particular organizational aspects, as established by a specification defined ad hoc to supplement the agreement, containing specific indications also regarding the supervision of the property and the work of the personnel involved. In addition, access to museum spaces is subject to the use of masks, the detection of body temperature and the maintenance of interpersonal distances.
