The Venue
Palazzo Du Mensil
Via Chiatamone 61/62
Naples
Palazzo Du Mesnil, built in the late 19th century by Belgian barons Oscar and Ermanno Du Mesnil, is a historic building located on Naples’ seafront promenade. Originally a private residence with opulent interiors and intricate architectural details, it played a key role in the city’s post-unification urban redevelopment. After extensive restoration in the 1990s, it became the property of the University of Naples L'Orientale in 2000. Today, it serves as the university’s rectorate and houses important museum collections, offering a refined setting for academic events.
