Palazzo della Questura, Naples

The Palazzo della Questura (Police Headquarters) of Naples, Italy, is a building located on Via Medina and Via Armando Diaz.

ALong Via Medina, it is located adjacent to the tall modern NH Ambassador hotel, and two doors north from the Baroque Palazzo Giordano.

The style is severe and monumental, imposing an unharmonious and somewhat bullying facade relative to older nearby buildings.

The words QVESTVRA recall Latin script popular with fascists, seeking to associate a resurgent Italy with Roman past.

Flanking the portal, there was originally two reliefs depicting the Kingdom of Italy and the fascist eagle.
