Right behind the Royal Palace are the Royal Gardens, originally wanted by Emmanuel Philibert Duke of Savoy (1528-1580) to give lustre to the seat of his power. Actually, this green area took shape between the late 1600s and the early 1700s thanks to the work of André Le Nôtre, a landscaping architect (who worked at the Court of Versailles) who moulded them on the French model. During the Napoleonic period they were embellished by statues and some marble vases. Today they feature playgrounds and, thanks to their very central position, in the summer they often host events and concerts.
