Royal castle of Sarre in the same town in the Italian region of Val d'aosta for many years was the summer residence of the Savoy dynasty. Today it turned into a Museum and opened to tourists. Special attention in it deserve a gallery of trophies and Hall of fame.
The castle was built in 1710, the year on the ruins of the fortress, the first mention of which dates back to the mid 13th century. Several times he passed from hands to hands until it was purchased by the king of Italy Vittorio Emanuele II who ordered the building was restored and was used as a hunting residence during the Royal visits to the Val d Aosta. By order of the first king of Italy in the castle were also built new stables and the tower, and inside the room were completely modified. Responsible for the furnishing of the castle was appointed overseer of Milan's Palazzo Reale.
The heir of Vittorio Emanuele II, Umberto I, was also used by Sarah Costello as a hunting residence. In the last years of his reign, he ordered a complete restoration of the interior of the castle. Just then there appeared stuffed Alpine mountain goats and deer. In the same castle stayed Queen Maria Jose, even after the fall of the monarchy. And in 1989, the year Sarah Costello became the property of the government of the Autonomous region of Val d'aosta.
The castle is a long structure with a square tower in the centre. Restoration work carried out here at the end of the 20th century, helped to keep the essence of the double castle – like Alpine residence and Museum, reminiscent of the once mighty Savoy dynasty. Access to the first floor is open today for all. Rooms are arranged in such a way as to introduce tourists to the Museum under sightseeing tours, which begin every half hour. Here you can see portraits of members of the house of Savoy (in the reception Hall and the Cabinet of engravings), learn about the Royal hunting grounds in the Alps and, in fact, to get acquainted with the history of the castle. The rooms of the upper floors of antique furniture, found here at restoration. On the second floor visitors can explore the Royal apartments with huge game room, a gallery of hunting trophies and personal residence, the first time open to the public. The third floor is entirely devoted to the history of the Savoy dynasty in the 20th century – here is the fate of Vittorio Emanuele III, Elena di Montenegro, Umberto II and Maria Jose, who were closely connected with the history of Val d'aosta.
