Visitors can explore the historic royal apartments, the throne room, the small court theater, and a collection of paintings by Neapolitan artists. The site offers access to the monumental staircase and the opulent interiors adorned with portraits of the royal family and works by Guercino and Mattia Preti. The palace is accessible to people with limited mobility and provides free lockers for small personal items, ensuring a comfortable experience for all guests.
