A structure of marvel and wonder, this is another one of Vanvitelli’s miracles where he manages to hide the majesty of the structure. Various statues flank the staircase and the dome’s large size manages to mask the space for the orchestra, giving the effect of an ‘invisible choir’. The Grand Staircase in the Royal Palace of Caserta has also been an inspiration for many other beautiful staircases designed afterward.
Another Luigi Vanvitelli creation, the Palatine Chapel was also inspired by the chapel in the Palace of Versailles. However, Luigi gave the Chapel its own allure by following a Renaissance, Mannerist and Baroque design. The Palatine Chapel is situated near the entrance of the Royal Apartments and was inaugurated in the Christmas of 1784.
The Royal Floor in the Palace of Caserta was divided into 4 quarters by Luigi Vanvitelli. The south-west of the floor was the quarter for the King and is called XIX Century apartments today. The south-east part of the floor was for the Crown Prince, known as XVIII Century apartments today, and was the only section inhabited by the Royal Family for more than 50 years. The other two quarters are called Old and New Apartments.

This is by far the most impressive palace in Europe: a true inheritor of the ancient Roman style of architecture. Things like Versailles or Hofburg (or Windsor) cannot hold a candle to it in style, solid form and elegance. And yet, it is almost totally unknown to the public!! Only the impartial architects and art historians (unmarred by blind nationalism) know of the magnificience of this structure and speak of it in their classes
As Italian, with a degree in history of art, I can say that your are wrong. Versailles was the model who inspired all other european courthouses. It was the apex of baroque style in Europe. The Reggia di Caserta was build basically almost 2 century later, in neoclassical style, when industrial revolution was already happening. It has a completely different story and has to be put in the right perspective. Versailles was the center of the power of the continent, while Caserta always remains a regional centre of power. The scale of Caserta's palace is truly commendable, the decoration are insane, the artworks incredible. But you have to put everything in perspective: the Kingdom of Two Sicilys wasn't comparable to the other European power. Speaking of France, for example, don't compare to Versailles: the palace of the french kings was the Louvre. It's almost 230.000 square meters in surface, so it's even bigger than Caserta's palace (at that time, it was the largest complex in the world, comprehensive of the Tuileries palace). The Reggia stands out for the grand vision of the Bourbon (the same royal family who built Versailles) but we have to be careful when comparing building with the same representative function (Caserta/Louvre) or building with similar symbolism of wealth for their time (Caserta/Versailles).
макаронник-помолчи!!!🍜
@@Squagliafrittata Amazing how you repeat the touristic superficialities for this masterpiece. The French were simply trying to copy what they understood of the Roman architectural heritage, earlier in Tuileries and then at Versailles, all the way down to the Roman triumphal arches in the courtyard of their palaces, in the middle of the city--everywhere.
Napolean (himself born Roman/Italian) carried all the Roman goodies he could get his hands on, to Paris. From columns holding ceilings while leaning against the side walls to pilasters, to grand staircase, to giant yards, lakes, domes, roofings, high corridors, barrel arches, and high windows... all copied from the Romans (except indoor plumbing that French never figured how to make). All of this are found at Casreta, and they are Roman, whether directly or circuitously.
deferentially it is not biggest (Louvre Palace )and relatively cheapest royal palace in Europe! (riches is Winter Palace Russia)

The architecture is another level ❤
Me he quedado sin aliento es enorme y bellisimo, rastros de grandeza y lujo superlativo
Caserta Royal Palace is absolutely mindblowing and still an underrated treasure off the beaten path.
The dimensions of the palace are impressive, the gardens and fountains create a magnificent backdrop and the complex is truly breathtaking.
It is a tourist destination that I recommend to every visitor, together with the islands of Ischia and Ponza.
Campania is not only Naples, Pompeii, the Amalfi Coast and Capri, there are many other places that are worth visiting!
The Royal Palace of Caserta is the largest former royal residence in the world, over 2 million m3 in volume and covering an area of 47,000 m2 and a floorspace of 138,000 square meters is distributed in the five stories of the building (Source Wikipedia)
Absolutely magnificient palace😍 thanks for sharing
The alfrescos are beauitful. Its so beauitfu and massive in size.
Queen Amidala’s palace in Naboo!
Beautifull. I visited a few palaces when I travel to Europa. The palacio Real in Madrid is my favorite. Salutations from, USA.
Lástima que no hicieras una breve descripción de los espacios y su contenido histórico..
Pues el mejor palacio de Europa magnífico legado de los Borbones de España que le han dejado a ITALIA como siempre ESPAÑA es un Reino que ha sido grandioso en cuanto a muchas cosas entre ellas la arquitectura palaciega y el arte en general y muchas otra cosas que no se conocen por la falta de propaganda que ha tenido lo español y denigrada por la LEYENDA NEGRA fomentada por la envidia inglesa y de otros .
if you could move the camera faster so we could see nothing at all it would have been great
A lot like the winter palace in Petersburg. Will we ever know who actually built and when cause this guy sure didn't.
An Impressive glimpse into an undoubtedly vast palace Marred only by the contributor's penchant for making sweeping but Totally Unfounded statements, for example Italy's " Royal Palace of Caserta" is actually only the SIXTH Largest once "Royal" or official residence, in continental Europe. Those ahead of " Palacio Caserta " are the "Louvre Palace" compound in Paris, the "Hofburg Palace" in Vienna, "The Winter Palace" in St. Petersburg, The "Apostolic Palace" Vatican City and the "Malbork Castle" complex in Poland. Need to fact check your submissions next time perhaps...!
