Королевский
дворец в Турине (Палаццо
Реале; Palazzo
Reale) —
главная резиденция правителей Савойской
династии в Турине.
Первой хозяйкой дворца, возведённого
в 1646-60 гг. по барочному проекту
отца и сына ди Кастеллмонте, была Кристина
Французская.
Парадную лестницу дворца спроектировал в XVIII веке Филиппо Юварра. Дворцовая капелла соединяется переходом с Туринским собором, где находится Туринская плащаница.
В числе других резиденций Савойского дома королевский дворец находится под охраной ЮНЕСКО как памятник Всемирного наследия. В 2012 г. в классицистическое крыло дворцового комплекса, перед которым видны руины античного города, переехала Туринская картинная галерея.

История и информация на английском языке
Construction
of the palace was ordered by the Regent Maria
Christina in 1645.She wanted a new residence for the court after her
son returned from the civil war.
The
chosen location was the previous Bishop's
Palace, which had been built in the middle of the new capital of
Savoy, Turin,
during the reign of Emmanuel
Philibert, Duke of Savoy (1528–1580).
Its advantages included an open and sunny position, in addition to
being close to other buildings where the court met.
The Duke was able
to monitor the two entrances of the city (the Palatine and the
Pretoria gates) from the Bishop's Palace. The Bishop's Palace in
Turin was later captured by the French in 1536 and served as a
residence of the French Viceroys of Savoy,
who were appointed by Francis
I of France.
Opposite the Bishop's Palace was the Palazzo
Vecchio or
the Palazzo
di San Giovanni. This
building, disparagingly known as Pasta
con Tonno (English:
Pasta with tuna) because of its architecture, was later replaced by
the grand Ducal Palace.
Thus
the old Bishop's Palace became the seat of power and was greatly
expanded by Emmanuel Philibert to house his ever-growing collection
of art, animals, marbles, and furniture. Emmanuel Philibert died in
Turin in August 1580 and the Savoyard throne was handed down to his
son, Charles
Emmanuel I, Duke of Savoy (1562–1630).
In celebration of the joint marriages of his daughters Princess
Margaret and Princess
Isabella in
1608, Charles Emmanuel I commissioned the construction of a ring of
porches topped off by an open gallery. His son, the future Victor
Amadeus I, Duke of Savoy (1587–1637),
entered into a prestigious marriage when he married the French
Princess Christine
Marie of France.
Their marriage took place in Paris at
the Louvre in
1619.
Victor
Amadeus I succeeded to the Duchy
of Savoy in
1630. He had previously spent his youth in Madrid at
the court of his grandfather, Philip
II of Spain.
His wife set the tone for Victor Amadeus I's reign. Christine Marie
had the court moved from the ducal palace in Turin to the Castello
del Valentino,
which at that time, was on the outskirts of the small capital. Many
of Victor Amadeus I and Christine Marie's children were born at
Valentino, including Francis
Hyacinth, Duke of Savoy and
his successor Charles
Emmanuel II, Duke of Savoy.
Christine Marie became the regent of Savoy after the death of her
husband in 1637 on behalf of her two sons, who succeeded as Dukes of
Savoy.
During
the reign of Victor Amadeus II, the Daniel gallery was created and
named after Daniel
Seiter,
who painted the lavish murals seen there. Victor Amadeus II also had
a collection of summer apartments built to look onto the court and a
winter apartment overlooking the gardens. His wife was the niece
of Louis
XIV,
born Anne
Marie d'Orléans. Louis
XV's mother and aunt were
born in the palace in 1685 and 1688, respectively.
The
Chapel of the Holy Shroud, the current resting place of the Shroud
of Turin,
was added to the structure in 1668-1694.
The
Dukes of Savoy became the Kings of Sicily in 1713, but they swapped
to the Kingdom of Sardinia and ruled from 1720 after the Treaty
of The Hague.
Anne Marie d'Orléans died at the palace in 1728.
Victor
Amadeus III married Maria
Antonietta of Spain and
the couple preferred to reside in the country in the Palazzina
di caccia di Stupinigi.
The Neoclassical style was introduced to the palace in the reign of
Charles Emmanuel III. The palace was overshadowed by the Stupinigi
building later on, when Victor
Emmanuel II of Sardinia married Maria
Adelaide of Austria.
The palace once again saw some life with the redecoration of some of
its rooms.
In
1946, the palace was claimed by the Italian Republic and turned into
a "Museum of the Life and Works of the House of Savoy". Its
rooms are decorated with rich tapestries and
a collection of Chinese and Japanese vases. The Royal
Armoury houses
an extensive array of arms, including examples from the 16th and 17th
centuries.
The
palace houses the Scala
delle Forbici, a
staircase by Filippo Juvarra. The Chapel of the Holy Shroud, with its
spiral dome, was built in the west wing of the palace, joining
the apse (a
semicircular recess) of the Cathedral
of St. John the Baptist,
to house the famous Shroud
of Turin,
which belonged to the family from 1453 until 1946. The royal gates of
the palace have a golden Medusa symbol embossed on them, in order to
fend off intruders.
Anna
Caterina Gilli was
active as a decorative painter at the palace.
