The system of the Royal Residences reached its period of grandeur between the XVII and the XVIII century, thanks to the establishment of what Amedeo di Castellamonte called Corona di delizie (Crown of Delights), a particular system composed by palaces, vineyards, houses and castles, royal residences representing the style and the power of the Savoy.
