The Palazzo Chiaramonte-Steri is a 14th-century palace in Palermo, Sicily. Built for the powerful Chiaramonte family, it later served as the residence of the viceroys of Sicily and, from 1604 to 1782, as the seat of the Inquisition in Palermo; since 1943 it has housed the rectorate of the University of Palermo.
