The property is the result of the merger of the 16th-century Tommaso Naclerio villa with the houses owned by Pietro Antonio Carafa, Prince of Policastro; the palace gradually took shape between the late 16th and early 17th centuries on the block bounded by Vico delle Belledonne and Via della Cavallerizza. Undergoing a radical renovation at the end of the 18th century with the opening of a new entrance facing ‘Cavallerizza di Chiaia’, the property was acquired at the beginning of the following century by the Caracciolo di Torella family.
