Ex Museo archeologico di Siracusa, Cultural heritage office in Piazza del Duomo, Ortigia, Italy
The palace exhibits a neoclassical design with two floors, featuring a grand portal, rectangular windows, and Ionic columns across its symmetrical facade.
Built during the second half of the 1800s, this structure replaced the former Convent of San Giovanni di Dio, which previously contained the Archaeological Museum.
The building contains the Numismatic Cabinet, displaying an extensive collection of Greek, Roman, and medieval coins discovered throughout Syracuse.
Located in the central Piazza Duomo of Ortigia island, the palace stands 1.8 kilometers from the Syracuse railway station.
Four rectangular windows mark the ground level while five arched openings separated by eight Ionic columns distinguish the upper floor of this administrative building.
