A beautiful old church in the heart of Naples old town - free to pop in so definitely worth a look and more impressive than the main catheters in my opinion

Don't just walk past, come in and see a masterpiece of baroque. Clearly a church with dedicated visitors coming to particular chapels. Naples is a city where Catholicism is very much alive and practiced in a traditional and full blooded way. This is not the CofE.

Near the Dante, near the Archaeological Museum, walk the grtty and life filled streets of this neighborhood then go into an amazingly lovely elegant church. It must contrast the mortal and immortal. Ok, I'm no philosopher.

The ceiling frescoes are very impressive and we were delighted to learn about the modern day Saint, Giuseppe Moscati. You can see his tomb and watch as Italians pay tribute to his relics. There is also a small... More 

Originally the Prince of Salerno’s residence, it is now a church. Nuovo or new versus the older Gesu church further away. The start façade is unusual and named ‘ashlar’ – typical of 15th century Naples. Apparently the interior is in direct contrast with the stark exterior – spectacularly ornamental.
