Palazzo Ajutamicristo, Renaissance city palace in Kalsa quarter, Palermo, Italy.

The palace features rectangular stone walls, an asymmetrical main portal with a stone arch, and a merlionated roofline on the northern wing.

Guglielmo Ajutamicristo, a merchant from Pisa who traded Sicilian cheese and cereals, commissioned the construction of this palace between 1495 and 1501.

The ballroom contains a ceiling fresco by Giuseppe Crestadoro depicting The Glory of the Virtuous Prince, representing Sicilian aristocratic artistry.

The palace functions as a private residence for the Calefati family while offering three guest rooms for bed and breakfast accommodations.

The palace received Emperor Charles V in 1535 and was considered superior to the royal palace of Palermo during the Renaissance period.
