Abstract

Historiography has considered the palace of Venaria Reale mainly by an architectonic and artistic perspective. It is also a well-recognised fact that Charles Emmanuel II, deciding in 1658 to realize a new hunting palace in a small rural village, started urban plannings directed both to build the residence of a court and to establish new economic activities. Relationships with the community, directly involved in the process of transformation of its territory, were intense, sometimes tense, but in general in favor of the crown. This research aims to analyze the interaction and dialogue between the crown and the social components of the territory. It also analyzes in which way the decisions of the crown influenced the life of the community, given that the implementation of the urban plans modified not only the material culture, but also economic and social structures of population.
