Palazzo Bellomo Museum, Art museum in Syracuse, Italy.

The Palazzo Bellomo Museum occupies a medieval palace with a stone facade, square blocks, pointed portal, and two narrow windows in its architecture.

The palace, dating from the 12th century during Hohenstaufen rule, underwent modifications in the 14th century when acquired by the Bellomo family.

The museum displays Sicilian art from Byzantine period to 18th century, including paintings, sculptures, decorative arts, and the Annunciation by Antonello da Messina.

The museum spans two floors, with the ground level featuring Byzantine to 16th-century sculptures and the upper floor housing the art gallery collection.

The Cortile delle Palme contains Syracusan marble coats of arms representing both civil and religious symbols, including the town emblem and Spanish viceroyal insignias.
