About Storia del Regno d'Italia
Two Centuries of History at the Royal Villa
The exhibition "Storia del Regno d'Italia – Da Napoleone a Umberto II" is set up at the Belvedere of the Villa Reale in Monza (Province of Monza and Brianza) and retraces over two hundred years of national history through authentic materials. A journey that spans the Napoleonic era, the Risorgimento, the birth and parabola of the Kingdom of Italy, up to the institutional referendum of June 2, 1946.
Treasures from the Savoy Collection
The exhibition displays official paintings, historical uniforms, autograph proclamations, decorations, and objects belonging to the sovereigns, largely from the collection linked to the House of Savoy. A heritage that allows us to read grand history through concrete and often unpublished testimonies, revealing the faces of the protagonists and the atmosphere of different eras.
A Tribute to Queen Margherita
A special focus is dedicated to Queen Margherita, on the occasion of the centenary of her death: a beloved figure deeply connected to the Villa Reale in Monza, where Savoyard history has left indelible traces. The exhibition, produced by Visionplus, confirms the Villa Reale's vocation to host major cultural events capable of narrating national identity in one of its most representative settings.
