Palazzo di Giustizia

The Palazzo di Giustizia stands as a monumental judicial complex featuring three principal towers reaching heights between 68 and 113 meters, with approximately 155,000 square meters of functional space housing Naples' main legal institutions.

Construction began in 1971 and concluded in 1990, designed to consolidate over thirty previously scattered judicial offices into a single modern facility, though work was delayed by the 1980 Irpinia earthquake and a devastating arson fire in 1990.

The complex preserves important artistic heritage including a 16th-century wooden artwork depicting the Eternal Father, Holy Spirit and crucified Jesus with Saints James and Andrew, restored with funds from the Bank of Naples.

Located in Piazza Giovanni Falcone e Paolo Borsellino near Naples' business district, the courthouse provides separate access routes for judicial personnel, lawyers, citizens and detainees, with comprehensive online services available through the tribunal's official website.

The building features a distinctive covered plaza at 18 meters height connecting the three main towers, serving as a central meeting point and transit space for users of judicial services.
