Royal Palace of Ficuzza, Neoclassical hunting palace in Corleone, Italy
The Royal Palace of Ficuzza extends across three floors with a rectangular facade adorned by sculptures of Pan, Diana, and the Bourbon coat of arms.
King Ferdinand III of Sicily commissioned this hunting lodge in 1799, residing here continuously from 1810 to 1812 while escaping from Naples unrest.
The palace houses the Ficuzza Forest Multimedia Museum, displaying exhibits about local nature, wildlife, and the royal hunting traditions of Sicily.
Visitors can access guided tours of the palace, exploring the royal chamber, reception halls, private chapel, cellars, and original architectural features.
German troops during World War II destroyed much of the original furniture, leading to the building's transfer to Forest Administration management in 1870.
