A jewel of architecture in Poirino

Built in 1841 based on a design by Ernesto Melano, the First Architect of King Carlo Alberto, this residence is an example of Neoclassical architecture. It is a significant building on three floors. Its main facade, in red brick with decorations and pilasters, ribs and terracotta cornices, faces Via Cesare Rossi, while the south side, facing the park adorned with historically classified trees, has a portico of ten arches. The interiors are richly decorated with frescoes, decorated marble fireplaces, and multi-colored wooden floors that create geometric and floral designs. On the ground floor, there is a large modern kitchen, a dining room, a summer living room, a tea room, and a smoking room. A Luserna stone staircase with completely decorated walls and ceilings frames the access to the Piano Nobile where you enter two party rooms; the Savoia Hall has a rich 19th-century pictorial decoration with medallions depicting the Alpine Castles of the House of Savoy, while the Royal Hall has the classic 18th-century French decoration, the library and several bedrooms as well as a large "British Bar" with access to the large terrace overlooking the park and the churches of Poirino. On the second floor, an independent apartment with four bedrooms has been created. The large windows make the rooms bright and poetic with a breathtaking view of the Alps and Monviso. This residence represents an important testimony to 19th-century architecture. Its strategic position, its history, and the beauty of its interiors make it one of the most prestigious residences in the area
