CONTACT THE HOST VISITS TO THE CASTLE The Castle can be visited from the begging of spring till late autumn on a tour to discover daily life into an ancient Savoy abode: from the basements to the kitchen pantries, from the orchards to the salon dedicated to light up and heat the abode, from the servants’ room to the headmaster’s office, from the kitchens to the offices, from the bathrooms to the Music room and the Minister’s office, the kids’ rooms, the completely furnished dining room and the honour room where you still have the feeling to hear the steps of the dancers. Moreover, a new tour has been recently launched, dedicated to the amazing historical model trains (1895-1940)) and to a spectacular still working large scale (1:43) tracks circuit, which crosses about three different rooms on last floor of the Castle. The tour is reserved for little groups of enthusiastic people and for collectors. The visit at these vintage miniature trains includes some of the first spring model trains, then steam-powered and electric trains. Furthermore there are documents and cartographies dedicated to the construction of the railways and of the rail tunnels, technological innovations which thrilled our great-grandfathers as the models testify. The Castle has been the place of many events and exhibitions over the years. For 17 years in the month of April the park has been hosting the most famous botanical event of Pralormo: Messer Tulipano, in which there is an exceptional florescence of thousands of tulips and narcissuses. The event involves the entire park and each edition hosts a new planting, completely updated in the variety and in the colour-project. Also the Orangerie pavilion and the Castellan Farmstead can be rented for weddings, meetings and receptions.
