Palazzo Mazzonis, Palace in Quadrilatero Romano district, Turin, Italy

Palazzo Mazzonis stands with a quadrangular layout on Via San Domenico, featuring classical architectural elements characteristic of Turin's noble residences.

The palace, originally owned by the Solaro della Chiusa marquises in the 17th century, was purchased in 1830 by Count Clemente Solaro della Margherita.

The building houses the MAO Museum of Oriental Art since 2008, displaying collections of Asian artifacts and artistic treasures.

The palace underwent renovations by architect Andrea Bruno in 2001 to accommodate the museum's requirements and improve visitor accessibility.

The palace's interior includes a grand staircase modified by Ottavio Mazzonis di Pralafera with trompe l'oeil windows and enlarged openings.
