San Carlo Theatre
98 Via San CarloITINERARIO MONUMENTALE E CASTELLI [33] - TEATRO SAN CARLO E LA GALLERIA UMBERTO I
Not far from Castel Nuovo, is the Real Teatro di San
Carlo, which was built in 1737 in honor of King
Charles III of Bourbon. The San Carlo is one of the
most famous theaters in the world. Its famous
arcades open onto one of the entrances of the
nearby Galleria Umberto I, the extraordinary
commercial gallery, built in between 1887 and
1890, on the maze of narrow streets which wind
through Via Santa Brigida and Via Toledo.
ITINERARIO MONUMENTALE E CASTELLI [34] - PALAZZO REALE E PIAZZA DEL PLEBISCITO
The Royal Theatre is connected with the majestic
Royal Palace, the brightest jewel of the Bourbon
kings. The palace was built in the early seventeenth
century (under the direction of the architect
Domenico Fontana) in honor of Philip III of
Habsburg, who was planning a visit to the city
(which never took place). The palace became, over
time, the official residence of the kings of Naples.
The structure is now an important museum, and the
Royal Apartments and the lush gardens are
particularly worth a visit.
