PALAZZO REALE

The royal palace is built from the year 1600 by the architect Domenico Fontana for the Spanish viceroy Fernandez Ruiz de Castro. Extended several times, it was partially refurbished by Luigi Vanvitelli in the mid-18th century. The visit allows you to discover the royal apartments, which are accessed by a huge staircase made of Carrara marble. Furniture, tapestries and period objects, some of which were "borrowed" from the Tuileries de Paris by Joachim Murat. Also worth seeing: the Palatine Chapel, the Court Theatre and the gardens.
