A treasure trove of art and culture, Palazzo De Felice di Grottaglie is a historic building that houses the Municipal Art Gallery.\n\nBuilt in 1767, the building is characterized by an artistic style of clear Baroque inspiration. The majestic gate with its Corinthian columns, overlooking a stout balcony, opens the entrance to the colonnaded courtyard that, even today, embraces an ancient well.\n\nRecently restored, the Municipality has allocated some rooms to the Municipal Art Gallery, inaugurated in 2006 with the temporary painting exhibition titled “Byzantine Testimonies from Southern Calabria”. Since then, various exhibitions have been set up and the building is used as a cultural container of the city.
