In 1508 Luigi De Torres had the palace built by the Neapolitan architect Pirro Ligorio to make it the family palace. The inscriptions inside the door frames of the noble floor testify to the conclusion by 1553.
Of late Renaissance architecture, with an irregular plan and arranged over two courtyards, it has a four-storey facade with windows, architraves and topped by a cornice. The arched portal with radial bosses emerges from the façade on Piazza Navona.
On the first floor there are architraved windows, while the other two floors have elements with a simple frame. Crowning a rich cornice decorated with lion heads, rose windows and towers, emblems of the Torres family.
The building passed as an inheritance to the Lancellotti family in the seventeenth century, who in the mid-nineteenth century were succeeded by the Massimo Lancellotti who still own it.
