The Royal Palace of Naples or Palazzo Reale di Napoli or Palazzo Riale Napule - Naples Italy - ECTV

The Royal Palace of Naples (Italian: Palazzo Reale di Napoli, Neapolitan: Palazzo Riale ‘e Napule) is a palace, museum, and historical tourist destination located in central Naples, southern Italy.

It was one of the four residences near Naples used by the House of Bourbon during their rule of the Kingdom of Naples (1735–1816) and later the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies (1816-1861). The others were the palaces of Caserta, Capodimonte overlooking Naples and Portici on the slopes of Vesuvius.

The palace is on the site of an earlier residence, which had housed the former viceroy Don Pedro de Toledo, Marquis of Villafranca. Construction on the present building was begun in the 17th century by the architect Domenico Fontana.[1] Intended to house the King Philip III of Spain on a visit never fulfilled to this part of his kingdom, instead it initially housed the Viceroy Fernando Ruiz de Castro, count of Lemos. By 1616, the facade had been completed, and by 1620, the interior was frescoed by Battistello Caracciolo, Giovanni Balducci, and Belisario Corenzio. The decoration of the Royal Chapel of Assumption was not completed until 1644 by Antonio Picchiatti.

In 1734, with the arrival of Charles III of Spain to Naples, the palace became the royal residence of the Bourbons. On the occasion of his marriage to Maria Amalia of Saxony in 1738, Francesco De Mura and Domenico Antonio Vaccaro helped remodel the interior. It was Charles who build the other three palaces in locations more peripheral to the city center. Further modernization took place under Ferdinand I of the Two Sicilies. In 1768, on the occasion of his marriage to Maria Carolina of Austria, under the direction of Ferdinando Fuga, the great hall was rebuilt and the court theater added. During the second half of the 18th century, a new wing was added, which in 1927 became the Vittorio Emanuele III National Library. By the 18th century, the royal residence was moved to Reggia of Caserta, as that inland town was more defensible from naval assault, as well as more distant from the often-rebellious populace of Naples.

During the Napoleonic occupation the palace was enriched by Joachim Murat and his wife, Caroline Bonaparte, with Neoclassic decorations and furnishings. However, a fire in 1837 damaged many rooms, and required restoration from 1838 to 1858 under the direction of Gaetano Genovese. Further additions of a Party Wing and a Belvedere were made in this period. At the corner of the palace with San Carlo Theatre, a new facade was created that obscured the viceroyal palace of Pedro de Toledo.

In 1922, it was decided (by the Decree of the Minister Antonino Anile) to transfer here the contents of the National Library (until then in the palace of National Archaeologic Museum). The transfer of library collections was made by 1925.

The library suffered from bombing during World War II and the subsequent military occupation of the building caused serious damage. Today, the palace and adjacent grounds house the famous Teatro San Carlo, the smaller Teatrino di Corte (recently restored), the Biblioteca Nazionale Vittorio Emanuele III, a museum, and offices, including those of the regional tourist board.

The history of Pienza is closely linked to its founder: Pope Pius II, born Enea Silvio Piccolomini, who was born there in 1405 from parents who were members of the noble Sienese family Piccolomini.

Once known as Corsignano, it was a fortified village already known in Roman times, though even more back in history it was inhabited, referable to the upper Neolithic and bronze ages.

When Enea Silvio Piccolomini (born in 1405), refined and distinguished humanist, embarked on an ecclesiastical career and became Pope in 1458...........................................................................................................................................................

Festa di Sant'Antuono (S. Antonio Abate), Edizione 2013 - Macerata Campania (Caserta) - Parte 2

Festa di Sant'Antuono a Macerata Campania, edizione 2013 (seconda parte). Per info visita:

- Realizzazione video: FotoCasertano Macerata Campania.

Il 17 gennaio di ogni anno Macerata Campania (Caserta) viene avvolta da una magica atmosfera dovuta alla Festa in onore di Sant'Antonio Abate, ovvero la Festa di Sant'Antuono.
Un culto medioevale, intriso di retaggi pagani, che, negli anni, ha assunto le dimensioni di un rito collettivo, nel quale le celebrazioni religiose si mescolano al folclore, all'arte, alla musica etnica e alla gastronomia contadina. La festa di Sant'Antuono e delle Battuglie di Pastellessa a Macerata Campania - Caserta (il 17 gennaio di ogni anno) è tutto questo, e forse anche di più.
Botti, tini e falci, usati come strumenti a percussione scandiscono arcaici ritmi processionali denominati Pastellessa (o Pastellesse), accompagnati da canti tradizionali legati al folclore di Terra di Lavoro.

Nell'edizione 2013 hanno partecipato all'evento 17 Battuglie di Pastellessa per oltre 1000 percussionisti:
01 - E facc nov
02 - Suoni antichi
03 - A storia nov
04 - A cumpagnia 'e Sant'Antuono

Places to see in ( Naples - Italy ) Piazza del Plebiscito

Places to see in ( Naples - Italy ) Piazza del Plebiscito

Piazza del Plebiscito is a large public square in central Naples, Italy. It is named after the plebiscite taken on October 2, 1860 that brought Naples into the unified Kingdom of Italy under the House of Savoy. It is located very closely to the gulf of Naples, and bounded on the east by the Royal Palace and on the west by the church of San Francesco di Paola with colonnades extending to both sides. Other surrounding buildings include the Palazzo Salerno and, its mirror, the Prefecture Palace (on the left arm of the church).

In the first years of the 19th century, the King of Naples, Murat (Napoleon's brother-in-law), planned the square and building as a tribute to the emperor. Soon after Napoleon was finally dispatched to St Helena, the Bourbons were restored to the throne, and Ferdinand I continued the construction but converted the finished product into the church one sees today. He dedicated it to Saint Francis of Paola, who had stayed in a monastery on this site in the 15th century. The church is reminiscent of the Pantheon in Rome.

The façade is fronted by a portico resting on six columns and two Ionic pillars. Inside, the church is circular with two side chapels. The dome is 53 metres high. Occasionally, the square is used for open-air concerts. Artists who have performed here include Elton John, Maroon 5 and Muse. In May 2013, Bruce Springsteen & The E-Street Band gave a concert at the venue.

PIAZZA DEL PLEBISCITO - Naples - Italy (4K)

Piazza del Plebiscito ( Neapolitan: Chiazza d''o Plebbiscito) is a large public square in central Naples, Italy.
Named after the plebiscite taken on October 21, 1860, that brought Naples into the unified Kingdom of Italy under the House of Savoy, the piazza is very close to the gulf of Naples, and bounded by the Royal Palace (east) and the church of San Francesco di Paola (west) with its hallmark twin colonnades extending to each side. Other noted adjacent buildings include the Palazzo Salerno and, its mirror, the Prefecture Palace (on the left arm of the church).
In the first years of the 19th century, the King of Naples, Murat (Napoleon's brother-in-law), planned the square and building as a tribute to the emperor Soon after Napoleon was finally dispatched to St Helena, the Bourbons were restored to the throne, and Ferdinand I continued the construction but converted the finished product into the church one sees today. He dedicated it to Saint Francis of Paola, who had stayed in a monastery on this site in the 15th century. The church is reminiscent of the Pantheon in Rome. The façade is fronted by a portico resting on six columns and two Ionic pillars. Inside, the church is circular with two side chapels. The dome is 53 metres high.
In 1963, a municipal ordinance transformed the square into a public parking lot to cope with the uncontrolled increase of cars in the city. The square was thus disfigured (among other things, in addition to the car park there was also an extensive parking area for public transport buses close to the roadway, and even welcomed a large yard for the construction of the Rapid Tramway towards the end of the eighties) until in 1994, on the occasion of the G7 summit, the square was redignified, first replacing the asphalt of the roadway behind the Royal Palace with the more traditional paving stones, and then pedestrianizing it in its entirety.
Occasionally, the square is used for open-air concerts. Artists who have performed here include popular Italian and Neapolitan artists, such as Franco Battiato and Pino Daniele, as well as international stars including Elton John, Maroon 5 and Muse. In May 2013, Bruce Springsteen & The E-Street Band gave a concert at the venue.

Palace of Saint George, Genoa, Liguria, Italy, Europe

Palazzo San Giorgio, Palazzo delle Compere or St George, is a historic building of the most important and popular of Genoa. Currently it houses the headquarters of the Port Authority of Genoa. The building, including in the district of Molo, consists of two distinct parts: an older part, a typical example of medieval civil architecture, with the prospect facing the porch of Sottoripa, and a renaissance, facing the sea, in which prospectus, overlooking via the Merchandise, the short street that connects Piazza Loading and Piazza Cavour, near the old port, opens the portal of the main entrance. Initially called the palace of the sea, because it directly overlooking the docks, with the sea that lapped at the foundation, was built and designed by Friar Oliverio, architect and monaco Cistercian, around the middle of the thirteenth century as the town hall; It became the seat of the customs and in the fifteenth century it passed to the Banco di San Giorgio, from which it took its name. Expanded in the sixteenth century, it was completely restored in the second half of the work of Alfredo d'Andrade after a period of decline; from 1903 it houses the offices of the Port of Genoa. The building is today in a double aspect to the porch of the Ripa the thirteenth century building, in red brick and stone base, and the sixteenth-wing reaching out to the harbor, with the painted plaster. The part to the east, facing the facades of Sottoripa, is medieval, dating from 1260, which today we see in its restructuring nineteenth century; gray stone promontory square on the ground floor and exposed brick on the upper floors, crowned by Ghibelline battlements, the base has a portico consisting of five pointed arches supported by four columns and a pillar at each end. The facade, lightened by three lights and four, is devoid of ornaments: There was a time a fresco, made in the late fifteenth century by Carlo Braccesco, said Carlo del Mantegna, depicting St. George and the dragon. Of this painting, still well preserved in the eighteenth century, there were still traces of the first nineteenth century restorations, as evidenced by several authors of the time. Through the central arch of the portico opens the entrance, which was one of the building until 1912, when the new entrance was opened on the sea. Above the portal is a mask with a figure of a lion, and two other small lion heads you see on the edges at the sides of the porch; these small sculptures, Gothic but with influences of ancient Greece, were from the palace representative of the Venetians in Constantinople, called the Pantocrator, that the Genoese had obtained by the Byzantine emperor Michael VIII Palaeologus for their help against the Empire Latin Eastern and decided in the Treaty of Nymphaeum. Next to the entrance there is the plaque celebrating the foundation of the building. Via della Merchandise overlooking the wing century, with its facade entirely covered with frescoes by Raimondo Sirotti that follow those made at the beginning of the twentieth century by Ludovico Pogliaghi, which in turn had rebuilt, reinterpreting them, the original of Tavarone. The painted decoration of the facade plays a marble cladding with rusticated ground floor and pilasters that divide the table into three sections. At the center of the facade, above the imposing marble portal access, is the figure polychrome depicting St. George on horseback slaying the dragon, recurring image in many portals of the buildings of the old town: the saint in the Middle Ages was in fact considered the symbol of the Republic. The subject was freely interpreted by Sirotti in 1990, having disappeared all traces of the original seventeenth century. On either side, from left to right, are painted six statues, bronze color, inside false niches, depicting some historical figures of the Republic: the chronicler Caffaro, the Prince Andrea Doria, the Doge Simone Boccanegra (according to some the painting would represent rather the founder of the palace, Guglielmo Boccanegra), the leader crusader William Embriaco said hammer head, the navigator Christopher Columbus and finally admiral Benedetto Zaccaria. Complete the decoration figures of Janus and Neptune, also in faux bronze, and the emblem of the Conservative of the Sea, the body entrusted with the government of the port at the time of the Republic of Genoa. The facade culminates with the clock tower. From the entrance located in the Merchandise, in the statement to the sea, through a wide staircase leads to the sixteenth-century hall Compere, on the first floor; the living room is surrounded by niches in the walls with statues of the benefactors of the Tour.

Italy Christmas Tradition Zampognari

For more about Italy Christmas Vacations click Bagpipes are the most common Italian Christmas sound. The zampognari, shepherds who play the bagpipes, come down from their mountain homes at Christmas time and perform in the market squares. The playing of bagpipes is popular in the regions of Calabria and Abruzzo, and in the piazzas of Rome. The melodies played are adapted from old hill tunes. Modern zampognari wear the traditional outfits of sheepskin vests, leather breeches, and a woolen cloak. The tradition of bagpipes goes back to ancient Roman times. Legend says that the shepherds entertained the Virgin Mary in Bethlehem. Today, the zampognari perform their own private pilgrimage, stopping before every shrine to the Madonna and every Nativity scene. This video brought to you by Italy travel video.

Palermo, Sicily, Italy ???????? | 4k Binaural Audio | Praetorian Fountain to the Cathedral of Palermo

Join me on part two of my pleasant walk through the heart of Palermo, located on the northwestern coast of Sicily, Italy. On today's walk, we'll pick back up at the Praetorian Fountain, walk through the beautifully historic streets of the city, and conclude inside the Grandiose Cathedral of Palermo.


If you'd like to read a brief history of the city of Palermo, as well as the Praetorian Fountain, please take a look at the description from part one of this walk:


Here's a brief history of the Cathedral of Palermo:


The Cathedral of Palermo, officially known as the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, is a magnificent architectural masterpiece located in the heart of Palermo, Sicily, Italy. Its history is rich and complex, reflecting the diverse cultural influences that have shaped the city over the centuries.


12th Century Origins: The construction of the Palermo Cathedral began in the late 12th century, during the Norman rule of Sicily. The Normans, led by King Roger II, were known for their promotion of art and culture, and the cathedral project was a testament to their grandeur.


Arab and Byzantine Influences: The cathedral's design reflects a fusion of architectural styles, including Norman, Arab, and Byzantine influences. The Norman architects incorporated elements such as pointed arches, geometric patterns, and intricate mosaics, which were characteristic of the Islamic and Byzantine traditions.


Completion and Consecration: The main structure of the cathedral was completed in 1185 during the reign of William II of Sicily. It was consecrated by Pope Urban III in the same year. The cathedral's consecration was a significant event, marking the completion of one of the most impressive religious buildings in Europe at the time.


Subsequent Additions and Alterations: Over the centuries, the Cathedral of Palermo underwent various additions and alterations. The most notable of these was the construction of the iconic Norman-Arab south porch, known as the Portico dei Principi or Portico of the Princes. This elaborate porch features a series of arches adorned with mosaics, showcasing biblical scenes and portraits of Norman kings and rulers.


Tombs of Royalty: The cathedral also serves as the final resting place for several members of the Norman royal family. Notably, the sarcophagus of King Roger II and other monarchs can be found within its walls.


Transformation Under Spanish Rule: In the 16th century, Sicily, including Palermo, came under Spanish rule. During this period, the cathedral underwent significant changes, including the addition of Baroque elements, such as the grand Baroque façade. The façade features elaborate sculptures and decorations that contrast with the cathedral's earlier Norman-Arab design.
Modern Restoration:


In more recent times, the cathedral has undergone extensive restoration efforts to preserve its historical and architectural significance. These restoration projects have aimed to maintain the cathedral's structural integrity while also showcasing its diverse architectural styles.
Today, the Cathedral of Palermo stands as a remarkable testament to the city's multicultural heritage and the architectural evolution that occurred over centuries. It continues to be a place of worship, historical significance, and artistic admiration, attracting visitors from around the world who come to marvel at its unique blend of Norman, Arab, Byzantine, and Baroque influences.
