The Museo Nazionale del Risorgimento (National Museum of the Italian Risorgimento) is a museum located in the Italian city of Turin. The museum is dedicated to the history of Italy's Risorgimento, the movement that led to the unification of Italy in the 19th century.

The museum is housed in the Palazzo Carignano, a historic building in Turin that was once the seat of the Italian Parliament. The museum's collections include paintings, sculptures, prints, and other works of art related to the Risorgimento. The exhibits explore the political, social, and cultural aspects of the period, with a focus on the major events and figures that shaped Italy's history.

Visitors to the museum can explore a variety of exhibits, including the Sala dei Martiri (Hall of the Martyrs), which commemorates the heroes of the Risorgimento; the Sala della Convenzione (Convention Hall), which features a reconstruction of the Chamber of Deputies of the Kingdom of Italy; and the Sala del Senato (Senate Hall), which houses a collection of portraits of the members of the Italian Senate.

The museum also offers a number of educational programs and guided tours for visitors of all ages, including workshops, lectures, and special events.
