Palazzo Sant'Antonio

Palazzo Sant'Antonio stands as a rectangular building with an internal cloister featuring five arches on each side at the intersection of Corso Marzio Carafa.

The palace originated as a Minorite monastery in 1240, shortly after the deaths of Saints Francis of Assisi and Anthony of Padua in Cerreto Antica.

The cloister displays twenty ceramic panels in the ground that illustrate local monuments, notable figures, and traditions of Cerreto Sannita through artistic representations.

The building currently houses municipal offices and the Cerreto Pottery Museum, offering visitors access to both administrative services and cultural exhibitions.

Following the devastating earthquake of 1688, only two of seventeen brothers survived, using their order's funds to rebuild the monastery in its current location.
