Palazzo Berio, Renaissance palace in San Ferdinando district, Naples, Italy

The Palazzo Berio stands on Via Toledo, directly across from the Galleria Umberto I, featuring a central courtyard with a deer head fountain.

The palace, originally named Palazzo Vaaz, was constructed in the 16th century by architect Giulio Romano for Count Simone Vaaz, a Portuguese financier.

The palace contained a library of great importance in Naples during the 18th and early 19th centuries, storing numerous artworks including Canova's Venus and Adonis.

The structure underwent modifications in 1922 when a section was removed to create Piazzetta Augusteo and accommodate the construction of the Central Funicular.

The palace housed a grand hall for 1000 guests and a theater seating 1600 people, which later influenced the construction of Teatro Augusteo.
