The Palazzo Madama (also called the "Palazzo Madama and Castle of the Acaja", is a palace in the Via Garibaldi, facing the Piazza Castello of central Turin. The imposing baroque facade designed in 1718 by the architect, Filippo Juvarra, mainly encloses a grandiose staircase, while behind stands a medieval (XIVth century) castle-like square block with four cylindrical end towers.
