Over the years, Naples' Palazzo Reale has been the residence of many great Italian nobles, including the wealthy Charles III of Bourbon.

Since 1925, the Naples Palazzo Reale (Reale Palace) has also been home to the Biblioteca Nazionale, which features the vast Farnese collection brought to Naples by Charles of Bourbon, containing over 2000 papyruses discovered at Herculaneum and also precious fragments of a 5th-century Coptic Bible.
