Detail InformationEdit
Castel Capuano is a castle in Naples, southern Italy. It takes its name from the fact that it was at that point in the city walls where the road led out to the city of Capua. The Castle is at the east end of via dei Tribunali and until recently housed the Naples Hall of Justice, which has now moved to the new Civic Center, the Centro Direzionale.
The structure was built in the 12th century by William I, the son of Roger II of Sicily, the First monarch of the Kingdom of Naples. It was expanded by Frederick II of Hohenstaufen and became one of his Royal palaces. In the 16th century, under the Spanish viceroyship of Pedro Álvarez de Toledo, all of the city’s various legal offices and departments were consolidated here and it became the Hall of Justice – known as the “Vicaria” – the basements of which served as a prison. Over the entrance to the castle is still visible the crest of Emperor Charles V, who visited Naples in 1535.
The castle has undergone many restorations, one as recent as 1860, and no longer retains much of its original appearance.
