The surname Statella was first found in Naples, (Italian: Napoli, Latin: Neapolis) former capital of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies in southern Italy; it is the chief city of the province of Naples. It shares with Instanbul the claim to be the most beautiful city in Europe. Naples has 237 Churches and 57 Chapels. The National Museum and other galleries contain riches in art and artifacts. Originally from France Gletto Statel moved to Naples and obtained from King Roberto the title and privileges of Count for his descendants, as well as the Duchess of Bourgogne for his wife as Countess di Statel in 1314.
