Castello del Valentino
The Castle of Valentino (Castello del Valentino) is a historic building sitting in the heart of the second largest park in Turin, Valentino Park, along the west bank of the River Po. The Castle of Valentino sated back to the late 1200s but was completely reconstructed on the wish of young Christine of France, the Duchess of Savoy in the mid-1600s. French palaces inspired her to give to the castle its actual look, with four angle towers encircling the edifice in the form of a horseshoe, with a large courtyard with a marble pavement.
