Just ten kilometers from the heart of Turin stands this majestic Savoy residence, now a UNESCO heritage site. Designed by architect Filippo Juvarra in the first half of the eighteenth century, it was conceived as a hunting lodge for short stays by the sovereigns. In the nineteenth century it welcomed illustrious guests, including Napoleon Bonaparte and the Indian elephant Fritz, a gift to Carlo Felice of Savoy. Unfortunately, the distance from its natural habitat drove the animal to madness, unleashing a destructive fury that irreparably damaged the wooden furnishings, signs of which are still visible today.

Classic point of interest in the Turin area. From here, over 40 km of dirt roads and paths of the Stupinigi park open up.
