The Museo Egizio is a museum of ancient Egyptian archaeology, founded in 1824 when King Charles Felix bought the collection of the French consul Bernardino Drovetti. It occupies the 17th-century Collegio dei Nobili in central Turin and shows more than 40,000 objects in total, among them statues of pharaohs, papyri, coffins and mummies.
Palazzo Madama is a palace on Piazza Castello that grew from a Roman gate of Augusta Taurinorum into a castle of the Acaja princes. Filippo Juvarra added the white stone Baroque façade and grand staircase in the early 18th century. It houses the Museo Civico d'Arte Antica, with medieval and Renaissance art, ceramics, glass and decorative arts.
The National Museum of Cinema has occupied the Mole Antonelliana since 2000, the 167.5-metre tower by Alessandro Antonelli completed in 1889. Its floors run from the archaeology of cinema, the optical devices that came before film, to sets, posters and props around the central Aula del Tempio, and a panoramic lift crosses the museum to a terrace at 85 metres.
