Palazzo Zapata, Neoclassical palace in central Naples, Italy

The palace features a grand facade with large balconies and glass windows, incorporating two rows of columns along three landings of the main stairway.

Cardinal Antonio Zapata, who served as Viceroy from 1620 to 1622, established his residence in the palace after extensive renovations of the structure.

The Circolo Artistico Politecnico, operating within Palazzo Zapata for over 125 years, maintains a collection of artworks and organizes cultural exhibitions.

Visitors can find the palace at the intersection of Via Toledo and Via Chiaia, near Piazza San Ferdinando in the center of Naples.

Architect Carlo Vanvitelli integrated neoclassical elements into the building's design while preserving its original structural characteristics from the 1600s.
