Palazzo Branciforte, Renaissance palace in Historic Center, Palermo, Italy.

The palace contains exhibition halls, a library holding 50,000 volumes, an auditorium, and spaces dedicated to archaeological collections and cultural events.

Built in the late 16th century as the residence of Count Nicolò Placido Branciforte Lanza, the palace later served as Monte di Santa Rosalia charity institution.
