Royal Palace of Carditello, Royal palace and horse breeding center in San Tammaro, Italy.

The palace features a central two-story building with symmetric staircases, lateral wings, and an elliptical horse racing track in the forecourt.

Ferdinand IV of Bourbon commissioned architect Francesco Collecini to construct this palace in 1787 for agricultural production and horse breeding activities.

German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe documented the palace grounds, emphasizing the importance of its agricultural practices and natural surroundings.

The palace contains a museum of peasant civilization, displaying traditional farming methods and rural life from the region's past.

Eight defensive towers surround the main structure, with upper floors that once housed agricultural workers who maintained the 2,070-hectare estate.
