Palazzo Gravina Cruyllas, Palace in central Catania, Italy.
The palace stands at the intersection of Piazza San Francesco and Via Vittorio Emanuele, featuring architectural elements characteristic of Sicilian Baroque style.
Following the destruction of the original structure in the 1693 Sicily earthquake, the palace was reconstructed in the 18th century near the Teatro Romano ruins.
The palace gained additional significance as the birthplace of opera composer Vincenzo Bellini and now functions as the Museo Civico Belliniano.
The main entrance of the building faces Piazza San Francesco, opposite the Monument to Giuseppe Dusmet and the Church of San Francesco d'Assisi.
The structure underwent several modifications throughout its history, including the addition of a fourth floor after 1924 and received national monument status in 1923.
