HISTORY

The Borgo Castello, located inside the La Mandria natural park, was home of the Savoia Family since 60s of the Nineteenth Century, when the first king of Italy, Vittorio Emanuele II, decided to settle here because of the closeness to the city of Turin, who was soon to become

 the first Capital of Italy, and to be able to live far from the Royal Court, with his before lover and then morganatic wife, Rosa Vercellana. Moreover, the king here will be able to dedicate himself to his great passion: hunting. For this purpose, he had the park surrounded by27 km walls, still existing today, and has many animal species put inside it. Many architects work on the Borgo Castello project, such as Domenico Ferri, for the interior, Barnaba Panizza and Leopoldo Galli for the external. The history of Borgo Castello is way older than the arrival of Vittorio Emanuele II. The first interventions date back to the first years of the Eighteenth Century, precisely to 1708, when the Duke of Savoia, Vittorio Amedeo II, entrusts the architect Michelangelo Garove to build a structure destined to horse breeding. Successively, Filippo Juvarra will work on the project during the 20s of the Eighteenth Century. In 1860, upon request of Vittorio Emanuele II, the work of enlargement and preparation of the Royal apartments, still available for visiting, start under the guide, among others, of Ernesto Melano, who turns it into a 35.000 m2 complex, that still today looks like 280 x 100 m2 rectangle, with three inner courts.
