Palazzo Ischitella, Noble palace on Riviera di Chiaia, Naples, Italy.

The palace stands out with three grand portals on its main facade, featuring detailed architectural elements and traditional Neapolitan design patterns.

Spanish magistrate Matías de Casanate y Espés commissioned the construction of the palace in the 1620s while serving in local government positions.

Between 1700 and 1715, Neapolitan artists Giacomo del Pò and Giuseppe Simonelli created decorative works throughout the interior spaces.

The palace maintains its original frescoes, furnishings, and decorative elements from the 18th and 19th centuries despite conversion into residential units.

During the Austrian viceregal period, Prince Francesco Emanuele Pinto y Mendoza assembled an extensive collection of nativity scenes within the palace.
