Palazzo Filomarino, Baroque palace in historic center, Naples, Italy.
The Palazzo Filomarino displays a decorative piperno stone staircase and an ornate entrance portal designed by architect Ferdinando Sanfelice in the 18th century.
During the Masaniello revolt of 1647, Francesco Filomarino provided refuge to rebels fleeing Spanish troops, leading to cannon damage to the palace's upper section.
The palace houses the Italian Institute for Historical Studies, established by philosopher Benedetto Croce in 1947, containing his personal library and study.
Located at Via Benedetto Croce 12, the palace welcomes visitors from Monday through Thursday between 9:00 AM and 7:00 PM via Metro Line 1 at Dante-Toledo.
The palace walls preserve two original ogival arches from the Angevin period, visible along the 18th-century staircase, marking its architectural evolution through centuries.
