Mole Antonelliana & National Cinema Museum: Fast Track Entrance

See old optical machines that pre-date film, learn as you engage in educational activities worthy of any cinephile. And explore the work of influential filmmakers in Turin's National Cinema Museum, located in the iconic Mole Antonelliana. Take the crystal elevator to the top for dazzling city views! Lights, camera, action! - it's got all three.
Whoever enters Turin's National Cinema Museum isn’t just a visitor. They're an author, actor, dreamer, and spectator. They go from regular person to fully immersed cinema-insider when they walk through the doors.
Located in the somewhat bizarre-looking Mole Antonelliana - with its narwhal-shaped tower jutting into the sky, the Cinema Museum offers you a fascinating glimpse of cinematic history. That it happens in the celebrated architectural triumph known as Mole Antonelliana just adds to the experience (and makes it the tallest museum in the world).
Lay your eyes on fascinating pre-cinematographic optical devices you'll never believe they used before special effects, and see stage items from early Italian movies. This is the country that launched Bernardo Bertolucci, Federico Fellini, and Sergio Leone. They know movies.
Plus, take the elevator up to the tiptop of the tower for spectacular views of the city beyond.
This cool exhibition celebrates animals on the big screen, from Lassie to Tintin and his pal Snowy. See photographs, costumes, memorabilia, posters, storyboards and animatronics, all combined with those magical movie moments.
