La Venaria Reale

The permanent display of the Royal Palace is a journey in the history and the art of the House of Savoy that takes visitors on a 2000-meter long walk through the ground floor and first floor of the palace. It unfolds in the 17th century spaces of the Hall of Diana, the elegant Great Gallery with music composed by Brian Eno and the solemn Church of St. Hubert. The current collection consists of 60 works dating back to the 17th century from the Galleria Sabauda, including masterpieces by Albani, Cignani, Van Dyck, Brueghel and other Flemish and Dutch masters. The Gardens of the Palace, after a long and complex restoration process, are now bringing together an ancient and modern charm. The extraordinary balance between the archaeological remains and the contemporary artworks is set in a unparalleled scenery among Italian gardens for the majesty and the vastness of the natural landscape, that extends from the thick forests of the Park of La Mandria to the mountain peaks of the Alps.
