Palazzo Partanna

Palazzo Partanna is a palace located at Piazza dei Martiri in Naples and displays the classical architecture typical of the 18th century with an ornate facade. The building contains multiple floors with richly decorated rooms, featuring ceiling paintings and classical interior arrangements.

The palace was built in the 18th century as a residence for a wealthy family and underwent significant restoration and redesign work. In the 19th century, the building received a major reconstruction that shaped its present appearance.

The main halls display ceiling frescoes with religious themes created by local artists in the 18th century. These works reflect the taste and piety of Naples' aristocratic families of that era.

The building now houses administrative offices and is typically open only during special events or with prior arrangement. Visitors should inquire in advance to learn whether tours are available.

The building long bore the name of a duchess who lived there as the wife of a Neapolitan king before relocating elsewhere. This historical name reflects the family's connection to the royal court of Naples.
