Palazzo dell'Accademia delle Scienze, City palace in Turin, Italy.
The Palazzo dell'Accademia delle Scienze exhibits baroque architecture with a grand entrance portal and detailed stone reliefs across its extensive facade.
Built between 1679 and 1687 under architect Guarino Guarini's direction, the palace initially served as the College of Nobles before becoming the Academy of Sciences in 1787.
The palace functions as a center for scientific research and academic meetings, hosting exhibitions and conferences that contribute to Turin's intellectual development.
Located near public transportation stations and open daily, visitors can explore both the Academy of Sciences and the Egyptian Museum housed within the same building.
The palace features a nineteenth-century neoclassical balcony, added when the Egyptian Museum opened in 1824, creating an architectural fusion of styles.
