Palazzo di Sangro di Casacalenda, Naples, 18th century palazzo near San Domenico Maggiore church, Naples, Italy.

The palace exhibits a Doric style facade with piperno stone base and white marble columns supporting the noble floor balconies.

Between 1754 and 1762, architects Mario Gioffredo and Luigi Vanvitelli renovated the building for Duchess Marianna de Sangro di Casacalenda.

The interior contains frescoes by Fedele Fischetti, with three pieces now preserved in the Capodimonte Museum following the 1922 demolition.

The ground floor houses the long-established Neapolitan pastry shop Scaturchio, known for producing the Ministeriale dessert.

During construction, workers discovered archaeological materials including Greek walls from the 4th century BC, now visible behind the palace.
