We have been to Turin Italy and we show you a part of the royal palace, Area called Galleria Sabuda, with the remains of the Roman Theater:
The Roman Theater of Turin is part of the Roman remains of the ancient Augusta Taurinorum, included in the area of the Archaeological Park of Via XX Settembre. Dating back to 13 BC, it was active until the third century and represents the only infrastructure of the Roman city (Quadrilatero) to have left conspicuous evidence of the three subsequent construction phases. Its rediscovery in the modern age took place in 1899, during the demolition of some wings of the Royal Palace.
The building was probably built under the principality of Augustus (27 BC - 14 AD), even before the walls were completed, and was one of the first public buildings of the new colony of Augusta Taurinorum.We have been to Turin Italy and we show you a part of the royal palace, Area called Galleria Sabuda, with the remains of the Roman Theater:
