NAPOLI - Castel Nuovo ( Maschio Angioino )
Castel Nuovo, o anche Maschio Angioino, è uno storico castello medievale e rinascimentale, nonché uno dei simboli della città di Napoli.
Tra le due torri che difendono l'ingresso venne eretto un arco di trionfo in marmo, destinato a celebrare il ricordo dell'ingresso di re Alfonso nella capitale, quest'ultimo scolpito sul punto più alto dell'arco. L'opera trae ispirazione dagli archi di trionfo romani.

Napoli - Castel Nuovo (Maschio Angioino) - Naples, New Castle (Angevin Keep)
Napoli - Castel Nuovo, chiamato anche Maschio Angioino o Mastio Angioino, è uno storico castello medievale e rinascimentale, nonché uno dei simboli della città. La costruzione del suo nucleo antico oggi in parte riemerso in seguito ad interventi di restauro ed esplorazione archeologica si deve all'iniziativa di Carlo I d’Angiò, che nel 1266, sconfitti gli Svevi, salì al trono di Sicilia e stabilì il trasferimento della capitale da Palermo alla città partenopea. La presenza di una monarchia esterna aveva impostato l'urbanistica di Napoli intorno al centro del potere regale, costituendo un polo urbanistico alternativo, formato dal porto e dai due principali castelli ad esso adiacenti, Castel Capuano e Castel dell'Ovo. Tale rapporto tra corte regale e urbanistica cittadina si era manifestato già con Federico II, che nel XIII secolo, nello statuto svevo aveva concentrato le maggiori attenzioni sui castelli trascurando affatto le mura cittadine. Ai due castelli esistenti gli Angioini aggiunsero il principale, Castel Nuovo (Chastiau neuf), che fu non solo fortificazione ma soprattutto la loro grandiosa reggia.
Il castello domina la scenografica piazza Municipio ed è sede della Società napoletana di storia patria e del Comitato di Napoli dell'Istituto per la storia del Risorgimento italiano, ospitato nei locali della SNSP. Nel complesso è situato anche il museo civico, cui appartengono la cappella palatina e i percorsi museali del primo e secondo piano. La Fondazione Valenzi vi ha la sua sede di rappresentanza, inaugurata il 15 novembre 2009 dall'allora presidente della Repubblica Giorgio Napolitano ed altre autorità, nell'ambito della celebrazione dei cento anni dalla nascita di Maurizio Valenzi. Il Castel Nuovo è il primo monumento partenopeo in cui ci si imbatte arrivando a Napoli dal mare.

Placess to see in ( Naples - Italy ) Castel Nuovo - Maschio Angioino
Castel Nuovo, often called Maschio Angioino, is a medieval castle located in front of Piazza Municipio and the city hall in central Naples, Italy. Its scenic location and imposing size makes the castle, first erected in 1279, one of the main architectural landmarks of the city.
Before the accession of Charles I of Naples (Charles of Anjou) to the throne in 1266, the capital of the Kingdom of Naples was Palermo. There was a royal residence in Naples, at the Castel Capuano. However, when the capital was moved to Naples, Charles ordered a new castle, not far from the sea, built to house the court. Works, directed by French architects, began in 1279 and were completed three years later.
Due to the War of the Sicilian Vespers, the new fortress remained uninhabited until 1285, when Charles died and was succeeded by his son, Charles II. Castel Nuovo soon became the nucleus of the historical center of the city, and was often the site of famous events. For example, on December 13, 1294, Pope Celestine V resigned as pope in a hall of the castle. Eleven days later, Boniface VIII was elected pope here by the cardinal collegium and immediately moved to Rome to avoid the Angevin authority.
Under king Robert (reigned from 1309), the castle was enlarged and embellished, becoming a centre of patronage of art. In 1347 Castel Nuovo was sacked by the army of Louis I of Hungary, and had to be heavily restored after the return of queen Joanna I. The new works permitted the queen to resist the Hungarian siege during Louis' second expedition. The castle was besieged numerous times in the following years, and was the official residence of King Ladislaus from 1399. It decayed under his sister Joanna II.
Under the Aragonese dynasty, begun by Alfonso V in 1442, the fortress was updated to resist the new artillery. A famous triumphal arch, designed by Francesco Laurana, was added to the main gate to celebrate Alfonso's entrance in Naples. The decoration was executed by the sculptors Pere Johan and Guillem Sagrera, called by Alfonso from Catalonia.
In a hall of the castle the famous Barons conspiracy against King Ferdinand I, Alfonso's son, occurred. The King had invited the barons for a feast; but, at a certain point, he had the garrison close all the hall's doors and all the barons were arrested and later executed. The Barons' Hall was the seat of the Council of the commune of Naples until 2006.
After the fierce sack of Naples by Charles VIII of France's soldiers in 1494, the Kingdom was annexed by Spain, and the castle was reduced from residence to an important military fortress. It was the temporary residence of the Spanish kings during their visits in the city, such as that of Charles V in 1535. The castle was again used as a residence by Charles III and later on by Duke Stefano Di Conza. The last restoration of Castel Nuovo occurred in 1823.
The imposing single-sided white marble triumphal arch, built in 1470, commemorates Alfonso of Aragon's entry to Naples in 1443. It stands between two western Towers of the Angevin castle. The overall design had been attributed to Pietro di Martina, a Milanese architect, or, according to Vasari, to Giuliano da Maiano. Modern authors attribute the design to Francesco Laurana.

The overall design had been attributed to Pietro di Martina, a Milanese architect, or, according to Vasari, to Giuliano da Maiano. Modern authors attribute the design to Francesco Laurana. It is 35 meters tall and has been elongated into two stacked arches. Some reports claim that the arches had originally been planned as two face to a free standing arch for the Piazza del Duomo, but that an officer in the service of Alfonso, Niccolo Bozzuto, whose house was to be razed to make room for the monument, induced the king to alter the site to the Castel Nuovo. The self-conscious Renaissance style, appropriates items from Roman triumphal arches, but lacks sobriety, and is encrusted in a profusion of ornamentation with garlands, harpies, festoons, and putti among the elements. The structure is not a true arch, but decoration affixed to the former entrance of the castle. The flanking corinthian columns flank the entrance, but the first level sculpture depicts a triumphal quadriga leading Alfonso parading. The second upper arch is surmounted by Lions and four niches with statues depicting the virtues of Alfonso. Above this is a rounded lintel with two genii with horns of plenty surmounted by Alfonso in attire of a warrior. This cornice was meant for an equestrian statue. The three statues of St Michael, St Anthony the Abbot, and St Sebastian, and the two recumbent ones, on the summit of the arch, are by Giovanni da Nola. Passing under this arch we enter the piazza by the Bronze Gates, executed by the monk Guglielmo of Naples, and representing in various compartments the victories of Ferdinand I over the Duke of Anjou and the rebellious barons.

Un castello da visitare assolutamente. Il biglietto costa solo 6€, perché l'edificio è abbastanza piccolo. Ci sono però molte cose interessanti e una vista dal terrazzo molto bella (affaccia sul mare).

In posizione dominante, si erge su piazza Municipio l'imponente struttura di Castel Nuovo, più noto come Mastio angioino. Costruito appunto durante la dominazione della città da parte di Carlo d'Angiò nel XIII secolo, si distingue per le mura e le torri alte e massicce, ampiamente aggettanti sul piano di superficie.
