Saletta Reale
Museum | Monza | Lombardia | Italy
The "Saletta Reale" in the Monza train station is a historical waiting room that was originally intended for the royal family and their guests during their stays at the Villa Reale in Monza. Built in the late 19th century, the room reflects the eclectic style of that time, adorned with elegant floral motifs on the walls and a ceiling fresco of the Genio dei Savoia, created by Mosè Bianchi. This fresco represents an allegorical depiction of the genius of the Savoy family and is an outstanding example of art from that era.
After years of neglect and use as storage space, the Saletta Reale has been restored and is now open to the public. It serves as a cultural venue hosting exhibitions and events that celebrate the historical heritage of the region. Visitors can experience the artistic decoration and historical atmosphere of the room, providing insight into the royal history and architectural style of the late 19th century.
