Palazzo Grenoble, French cultural institute palace in Chiaia district, Naples, Italy.
The yellow tuff stone palace features two levels on the facade, three on the sides, and decorative busts of French cultural figures.
Scottish architect Lamont Young designed this Neo-Renaissance building in 1884 for the Mac Kean Bentik female school in Naples.
The Institut français de Naples operates within the palace walls to promote French language education through programs and cultural exchanges.
