Built as the residence of the Counts of Lecce in the 14th century, Palazzo Luce has been given new life through the vision of collector Anna Maria Enselmi, putting the contemporary world in dialogue with the historic heart of Lecce and offering a fresh new hotel experience.

At Palazzo Luce, architecture, design and art are conceived as a single whole and open to new acquisitions, site-specific works and artists’ residencies. Iconic furnishings designed by Sottsass, Ponti, Jakobsson, Caccia Dominioni, Caldas and Borsani share space with artworks by Kentridge, Abramovic, Kosuth, Ruff, Beecroft, Jaar, Marras, Grcic and others as well as extraordinary, original site-specific works, such as the bar designed by Martino Gamper and the fresco painted by David Tremlett on the ceiling of the Maria d’Enghien room.
