Its frescoed and stuccoed vaults are the work of well-known artists of the time such as Fedele Fischetti, Francesco Fuga, Mario Gioffredo and the Desiderio brothers.
TODAY
THE PALACE
The main entrance of
PALAZZO DORIA
is in Piazza VII Settembre.
From here you enter the hexagonal atrium and shortly after you are introduced to the large monumental staircase that connects the main floors.
Excellent work in the management of space, highlighted by the lack of perception of the trapezoidal shape of the building.
Inside, stuccoes, gilding, mirrors and magnificent ceiling decorations by Fischetti adorn the Vanvitellian building.
As for the furnishing of the apartments, a study of the available texts and images was carried out with the aim of giving a style as relevant as possible to the period in which the building was constructed.
To date
PALAZZO DORIA
has been skilfully restored,
The work lasted 3 years and was completed in 2020.
It is currently possible to rent the Piano Nobile on the first floor, for stays of one week or for shorter periods.
