The Palazzo Granafei-Nervegna is museum and part of the University of Salento, a refined 16th-century Renaissance palace in Brindisi, boasts a rich history, named after the noble families who owned it. Originally the Granafei family’s residence, who fled Constantinople, it later passed to the Nervegna family.
This elegant palazzo is now a significant cultural venue, notably housing the original, ornate marble capital of one of the ancient Roman columns marking the end of the Appian Way. Its façade features intriguing Latin inscriptions. Today, the palace hosts exhibitions and events, offering a glimpse into Brindisi’s past and architectural beauty.
