Palazzo Carignano is home to the oldest museum on the history of Italian unification, the only one with “national” status due to the importance, richness and representativeness of its collections.
Designed in the second half of the 1600s by Guarino Guarini, the Palazzo is regarded as one of the finest examples of Baroque architecture in Europe.

VISITING THE MUSEUM
Here, to mark the 150th anniversary of the Unification of Italy, the Museum was reopened to the public in 2011 with a new exhibition that guarantees visitors a unique experience as they learn more about the Risorgimento!
Having seen paintings, prints, sculptures, uniforms and vintage objects, the most exciting moment finally arrives as you come to the Parliament of the Kingdom of Sardinia, established in 1848 for the parliamentarians of the Kingdom of Sardinia before becoming the first Parliament of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861.
Your visit will be enriched with videos and interactive touchscreen tables that will seemingly bring you face to face with Cavour, Mazzini, Garibaldi and the other protagonists of the Risorgimento in the rooms where the history of Italy was written.
A trip to the National Museum of Risorgimento is a must for all those that want to rediscover the history of Italy. A visit that you won’t easily forget. What are you waiting for? Book now!
