Palais Brancaccio, Noble palace in Naples, Italy.

Palazzo Brancaccio is a monumental Gothic palace on via Mezzocannone in the Porto district, built in the 15th century with many references to Catalan architecture. Viceregal and Bourbon remodelling left little of the medieval fabric visible: only the low pointed Gothic arch of the portal and the walled-up arcades of the loggias survive. In the courtyard stands a five-arch portico with stucco decoration, built to shelter the staircase to the library.

Palazzo Brancaccio was built in the 15th century in Gothic style for the Brancaccio family, with many references to Catalan architecture. It was remodelled in the viceregal and Bourbon eras, and later in the late Baroque and Rococo taste. In 1690 Cardinal Francesco Maria Brancaccio's bequest opened here the city's first public library, the Biblioteca Brancacciana, later merged into the Vittorio Emanuele III National Library.

The palace's name comes from the Brancaccio family, who built it in the 15th century. In 1690 Cardinal Francesco Maria Brancaccio's bequest opened here the city's first public library, the Brancacciana, housed on wooden shelves by Andrea Gizio and Domenico Greco; the collection later passed to the Vittorio Emanuele III National Library. From the courtyard a door leads to the sacristy of Sant'Angelo a Nilo, the Brancaccio burial church.

The palace is located in a central Naples neighborhood and is easily accessible on foot, marked by its distinctive classical facade. Visitors should note that various areas of the building are used for different events, so accessibility may vary depending on scheduled activities.

From the courtyard of the palace, a doorway leads into the sacristy of the church of Sant'Angelo a Nilo, the Brancaccio family's burial place, reworked in the late Baroque and Rococo taste by Arcangelo Guglielmelli. The palace stands in the historic centre of Naples, listed by UNESCO.
