Piazza Castello was the vital center of aristocratic life during the period of the Savoia kingdom and still retains its central role in the heart of Turin. Framed by Turin’s characteristic porticoes, the city’s main streets run from here: via Roma, via Garibaldi, renowned for its affordable shopping, and via Po, which leads directly to the river of the same name.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997. it’s one of the most important buildings in Turin. Originally a bishop’s palace, it was redesigned in the late 16th century at the behest of Duke Emanuele Filiberto when Turin became the capital of the Savoia dukedom.
