  The grandiose construction, realized like a medieval castle, was built in reality between 1902 and 1904. Element of relief of the view from Via Caracciolo, the " castle " is a work of the English architect Lamont Young, it's the reason why, at first, it was called " Castle Lamont " was called.
The building is in Neo-Gotich style mixed with "Todoreschi" and Elisabethan elements, peculiar of English bourgeois residences. Initially the work was very criticized for the use of unusual lines not in harmony with the Neapolitan tradition.


Currently the castle is turned to private residence and it is not visitable.
