Palazzo dei Principi Natoli or Palazzo Vigo is a townhouse in Torre Archirafi,[1] a small village on the island of Sicily. It is part of the Comune of Riposto in the Province of Catania. The building was built in the 18th century by Giovanni Natoli Ruffo, the first Duke of Archirafi. Giovanni Natoli Ruffo built a small chapel next to the palace in 1743. By 1900, the palace and its lands belonged to the Vigo di Gallodoro family. Today the palace belongs to the Comune of Riposto. It is used for art shows, meetings, and talks.[2][3][4]
