La Reggia di Venaria Reale e' parte di un unicum composto da Reggia stessa, giardini e borgo cittadino. Tutti questi elementi sono stati e sono tuttora restaurati dopo anni di abbandono, con finanziamenti europei, e sono uno dei tasselli più importanti della corona di delizie delle regge sabaude all'interno e attorno alla città di Torino, iscritte nel 1997 nell'elenco dei siti patrimonio dell'Umanità dell'Unesco.

The Venaria Royal is a part of a "unicum" composed of the palace itself, the gardens and the town. All these elements have been and are still being restored after years of neglect, with European funding, and are one of the most important pieces of the crown of delights of the palaces of Savoy in and around the city of Turin, entered in the 1997 list of World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.

La costruzione iniziò nel 1659 a seguito del progetto originale dell'architetto "Amedeo di Castellamonte", ben prima dell'unificazione dell'Italia, quando Torino era la capitale del ducato di Savoia. Lo scopo del sito è stato quello di realizzare il miglior posto reale per la caccia.
Il progetto fu poi modificato, anche dopo i danni di guerra, nella prima parte dall'architetto Michelangelo Garove, ma in particolare dal famoso architetto Filippo Juvarra, e da ultimo da Benedetto Alfieri.

The construction started in 1659 following original project of architect "Amedeo di Castellamonte", well before the Italy unification, when Turin was the capital of duchy of Savoy. The scope of the site was to realise the best royal place for hunting.
The project was later modified, also after war's damages, in part first by architect Michelangelo Garove, but in particular by the famous architect Filippo Juvarra, and latest by Benedetto Alfieri.

Do you think that we also had to print the brochures in Chinese "- allows the engineer Francis Partridge, head of the conservative Venaria, which now flies to Shanghai to talk about the recovery and revitalization of the whole of Savoy, visited by about one million tourists the 'year. Officials of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of China are ready to accept and know the baroque style designed by Juvarra, large pavilions designed by Michelangelo Garove and innovative techniques used for the restoration of 240 000 cubic meters of interior walls and floors .

" In Shanghai, will discuss not only the success of the Palace. But the redevelopment of existing urban fabric, "Better City, Better Life." Venaria is an example. "Today is a pedestrian street Mensa, have sprouted dozens of new businesses, historic buildings restored, the square is no longer called the Annunciation Square Corleone - analyzes Partridge - because this is turning even the social fabric, all you will cretai 500 jobs. " And in a few months from the city center, Piazza della Repubblica, and Esedra Pagliere Court, sixty family moved from council estates to new areas of the city. In the old housing will host hotels, hostels and shops for the new Venaria. http://www3.lastampa.it/torino/sezioni/costume/articolo/lstp/251432/

By opposing the hardness of the dark father, Charles Emmanuel III restores the splendor of the court and, in 1730, as proof of magnificence, he orders the construction of two Venetian boat to be shown during the processions and parades on Po's destiny wants this is just the two teachers who have just completed the construction of the last Bucintoro, what then will be burned by Napoleon.

As per custom, the new star of the revival Savoy requires two bridesmaids to go out on parade, then come here, from Venice, gondolas two elegant and austere, he lost his head over the centuries, unlike Bucintoro Turin, has remained almost unchanged and awaiting the final touches before they can produce the Venaria with two ladys.

Now on view in the Royal Palace of Venaria's Rooms of the Arts are the works of celebrated goldsmith Carl Fabergé: gold, gems, diamonds and unique examples of his famous Easter Eggs, the excellent artistic production that reached its apex between the 19th and 20th Centuries.
The exhibit is completely dedicated to the French jeweler known as Karl Gustavovič Fabergé (1846-1920), head jeweler to the Imperial Court of the Romanovs.

Three-hundred-fifty precious masterworks will be on exhibit in this Royal Turinese Palace, all from the goldsmith’s atelier in St. Petersburg. Today they belong to the Link of Times Foundation collection in Moscow, and include nine of the Imperial jeweled Eggs – realized in gold, invaluable stones and other rare materials – in addition to the surprise heart picture frame of the Egg of 1897.
Besides the most famous Eggs in the world, the exhibit shows off the vast repertory of decorative objects and accessories, including frames, desk sets, cigarette boxes, buckles, purses and jewelry.
The event is also an occasion for commemorating, via images and visual displays, the relationship between the Savoy and Romanov Dynasties; in 1782, the Romanovs were guests at the Palace of Venaria during their famous Grand Tour, while the last Czar Nicholas II was received by the Royal Court and representatives from the Italian Government at Racconigi Castle (in Piedmont) in 1910.
