DESCRIZIONE:
The compound dates back to the early 1600s and was built by Ascanio Vitozzi on the hill of Turin as commissioned by cardinal Maurizio di Savoia. The name comes from Anne of Orléans, wife of king Victor Amadeus II, who received it as devise in 1692. The sovereign asked Filippo Juvarra to make a number of structural and decorative works and, together with a crew of painters, carvers and decorators, he expanded this vacation residence with halls, Italian-style gardens, grottos and water features. Inside, you can admire the scenic designs by Giuseppe Dallamano and paintings by Corrado Giaquinto and Gian Battista Crosato. After decades of semi-abandon it was re-opened in 2006.
