Neo-Renaissance palazzo by Lamont Young in the Rione Amedeo, built around 1884; now home to the French cultural institute.

On via Crispi, in the Rione Amedeo, stands "Le Grenoble", the work of the eccentric Scottish-Neapolitan architect Lamont Young, who tried out many of his projects in Chiaia.Built around 1884 for a girls' school, it is a fine example of Neo-Renaissance architecture. Today it houses the French cultural institute of Naples, with a cinema, exhibitions and courses.
