Walking down Via Toledo, and almost immediately on the right you'll run into the imposing Palazzo Banco di Napoli, which was rebuilt in the first half of the 1900s but founded nearly four hundred years earlier, as can be read in the block letter inscriptions above the two doors on the sides of the façade.
It almost seems like the bank is being watched by the busts and heads that are inserted in medallions in Palazzo Monaco di Lapio, which is right in front of the bank. If you can sneak into the elegant inner courtyard, you'll find two beautiful fountains. The one on the right is decorated by the sculptural group of Venus and Adonis, and the one on the left has a head with the princely crown and noble coat of arms of the Monaco family, whose barons from Lapio gave the palace its name.
