The Royal Palace of Ludovicia' also called palace or castle of Ludovicia (in French château de Ludovicia), it is an ancient and a great royal residence erected by the Bourbon-Orléans as sovereigns of Kingdom of Ludovicia in the capital of Ludovicia.
The palace was born at the behest of King Louis I and, on the model of the Palace of Versailles in France, soon became the center of power of the new Bourbons in the new kingdom. In any case, it was only Louis IV who definitively transferred the court, leaving the Palace of the Governor of Ludovicia which had been the center of local power since the foundation of the kingdom.
Equipped with numerous rooms and apartments to welcome the members of the royal court, the palace also has an extraordinary park of 815 hectares which also serves as the hunting reserve of the sovereign.
Since 1955 the palace has become a property protected by the state.
