It is located in the street of the same name, near the church of Saints Philip and James and right behind the church of San Gregorio Armeno.

👍👍 Ancient, beautiful and full of great energy. This was the first church I visited in Naples, and 2 minutes after I went inside, a mass started and for my total surprise I was all alone. Me and the priest. It felt like being exactly where I should be!

Octagonal chapel with collection by Neapolitan 17th/18th-century masters including Luca Giordano.

👍 There is a lot to discover about the story of Naples through the priests roles

👍👍 L'attuale chiesa, costruita nel XVII secolo per volontà dell'arcivescovo Mario Carafa, sorge su una preesistente basilica paleocristiana con annesse catacombe (non visitabili). Dopo decenni di abbandono, nel 2017 è stata riportata al suo splendore, diventando uno dei più importanti centri di aggreg...

Ornate baroque Catholic church founded in the 17th century, dedicated to the souls in purgatory.

👍👍 The Sanctuary of San Sebastiano, as well as being very beautiful, has an ace up its sleeve... Father Enzo. Undisputed king of the sanctuary and of the town itself. A wonderful priest as well as extremely nice. All this is certainly confirmed by the following that he manages to gather thanks to his d...

👍👍 This church is located in the (rather infamous) neighborhood called Sanità. (In fact, the neighborhood Rione Sanità has a special charm, it is not possible to visit Naples and not go there). The Basilica of Santa Maria della Sanità is impressive, but a little neglected. Its beauty and artistic treas...

👍👍 Questa chiesa, che faceva parte di un complesso monastico poi soppresso (il monastero ospita oggi l'archivio di stato), si trova leggermente fuori dal circuito turistico e per questo viene ingiustamente penalizzata. È aperta solo dal giovedì alla domenica, dalle 9 alle 17, grazie ai volontari del To...

👍👍 I Imacolata

Church first built in the 14th century, containing famed tomb of Cardinal Brancacci by Donatello.

👍👍 This church is a flower of historic Naples but it offers you a great sense of sight only if you are trained for it. You have to read for its own characteristics. It's worth giving some time during your visit.

👍👍 The Romanesque bell tower present in the historic center of Naples, in Via dei Tribunali, is the only remaining artifact of the original building of the Church of Pietrasanta. The Romanesque style bell tower from the 11th century is one of the oldest in Italy, it has a brick wall facing (brick), on...

👍👍 Suggestive and engaging! The guide, a girl whose name I don't remember, was very knowledgeable; between the narration he gave and the surprises reserved for visitors along the way, I was so involved that I felt, for a moment, catapulted into that era! I liked it very much!
