Museo Nazionale del Cinema

Housed inside the iconic Mole Antonelliana, Turin's towering 19th-century landmark originally intended as a synagogue, this national cinema museum was designed by Gianfranco Gritella and exhibition designer François Confino. Completed in 2000, the museum spirals upward through the extraordinary interior void of the Mole, using ramps, platforms, and immersive installations to trace the history of cinema from its pre-cinematic origins to the digital age. The dramatic vertical space of the building itself becomes an integral part of the visitor experience.
