Museo della Radio e della Televisione

The Museo della Radio e della Televisione is a specialized museum in Turin housing over 1,500 items related to radio and television history. The collection includes original broadcasts, recording equipment, and transmission instruments spanning several decades.

The museum underwent major renovation and reopened in 2020 with new exhibitions documenting 200 years of communication technology development in Italy. The expanded collection traces how broadcasting transformed the country's relationship with information and entertainment.

The collection reflects Italian broadcasting history from early radio programs of the 1930s through popular television shows like Rischiatutto and the Sanremo Festival. These programs shaped how ordinary Italians spent their evenings and gathered together as families.

The museum is located in the city center and welcomes visitors on weekdays with no admission charges required. The building is easy to reach on foot or by local public transportation.

A distinctive feature is the On Air Museum section located within an active RAI television production studio. Visitors can observe live television productions happening in real time from this vantage point.
