Palazzo Fondi, 18th-century palace in Naples, Italy.
Palazzo Fondi is an 18th-century palace in Naples featuring a stone facade with two stories of windows. The noble floor displays a marble balcony with Ionic pilasters that emphasize its classical architectural design.
The palace was originally built for Marquis Gian Giacomo de Marinis and later underwent modifications under Prince Giuseppe Sansevero di Sangro in 1799 and 1824. These changes shaped its current appearance and reveal different architectural phases in its development.
The rooms hold paintings that once belonged to noble families who lived here. The collection reflects the refined tastes of these aristocratic inhabitants over time.
The palace is located at Via Medina 24 in Naples and now serves as a modern venue for various uses. Visitors can explore the building during exhibitions, conferences, or private events.
The entrance hall preserves the original coat of arms of the de Marinis family, serving as a silent witness to their rule. Inside the courtyard stands a remarkable staircase designed by Vanvitelli, featuring original frescoes from that era.
