The palazzo is from the 1700's, the castle goes back to medieval times - and it is built on old roman ruins. Great collections of furniture, art, china, lovely rooms, nice coffee shop - thoroughly enjoyed it.
The palazzo looks beautiful from the outside and there are certainly some interesting parts but there were a lot of negatives for me and I won't return here. This review I'll keep brief and to the point:Pro's - * The special exhibit on Primo Levi was very interesting and worth the visit* The mosaic floor downstairs was lovely (I think this was from Roman times, but a lack of signage made this challenging)* Being able to see the way the castle has been added to over time - from roman ruins to medieval castle to baroque was absolutely wonderful for me. * If you are interested in religious iconography or 18th century vases and teacups then it is great* I suspect the gardens would be wonderful in spring or summerCon's - * The most disinterested and dismissive staff I have come across in Italy (particularly the guy in the coffee shop). Staff make a big difference and when you get eyes rolled because you want to order something and this means that they have to come out of the back room and put down their phone, ask (in Italian - albeit not particularly good Italian) whether you order at the table or counter and get a grunt as a reply it makes a big difference to an experience. The staff through the museum were also disinterested, but at least not rude.* Confusing layout and there are no maps. I was never sure if I was walking in the right direction or not (and the staff were of no help)* While this next con is particularly anglophone centric - it was difficult that all of the artefact details were in Italian only (for a smaller attraction I wouldn't complain, but this is a big one) and so I felt unable to properly enjoy the things on display.
这里有非常有趣的展览,其中的互动游戏也很棒!这里饭店的女服务员也有很好,服务很到位,一流!
Great collections with a stunning view of the city panorama and Alps from the tower. For free you can walk up the beautiful staircase, otherwise the museum is 10euro.
宫内的艺术品、雕刻、绘画令人轻松愉悦,不像皇宫那么厚重庄严,甚至还有些情色,非常值得参访。还可以看到不少外国仿制的中国赝品瓷器。
Palazzo Madama is set on the wonderful Piazza castello, in Turin, in front of the Royal Castle. The building is a real artwork and took its "traditional" name from the embellishments it received under two queens (madama) of the House of SavoyThe staircase is magnificent, and the whole building hosts one marvel after the other. It hosts a large collection of paintings, statues, church ornaments, porcelain, and decorative art, mostly from the late Middle Ages to the 18th Century. Really worth a visit, the view from the terrace is really a must.A small suggestion: the café is opened from 7.30 till 9.30 during September....a real treat for breakfast!
If you don't want to pay the 10 euro entrance fee, you can still go into the main entrance, walk up the beautiful stone staircase on one side and come down the other. On the way, you'll be able to admire the gorgeous ceiling, marble floor and decorations and all for free. However, it would be a pity not to visit this museum which is full of various artefacts from different eras such as Roman coins, Medieval and Renaissance art, 18th century furniture, and ceramics, jewellery and other exhibits through the ages. There are also various temporary exhibitions on, for example at the moment you can admire the pieces (dresses, bags, shoes etc) donated by people from Turin and which make up the Affetti Personali exhibition which looks at Turin's important role in fashion from the 1920s onwards. There is also an incredible view of the city from the higher levels of the museum and a lovely café where you can enjoy a well-earned rest in lovely surroundings.
你真的可以在这里欣赏到国内外的各种文物。只有8欧元的入门费,很合算。建筑通气很好;从观景台能看到都灵天文台和阿尔卑斯山的壮丽景色。这里古现代艺术的完美结合吸引了一些人的到来。如果你是带小孩来的,他们应该会对探索建筑和园林感兴趣。
The museum itself, though quite striking is a yawn for me, but the special photographic exhibit made the price of admission.
Eclectic collections with masterworks of Antonello da Messina, van Eyck, Defendente Ferrari. An enchanting garden and an astonishing view from the tower over Turin. A must.
