Complesso Monumentale Vincenziano

About

An Eighteenth-century bulding rich in archaeological, spiritual, architectural and historical testimonies, developed in the ancient sacred area of ​​the Greek-Roman burials, on the vestiges of what it was the medieval Convent of the Crocifer Fathers. His architectural design is signed by architects such as Michelangelo Giustiniani and Luigi Vanvitelli. Along the route, directed by the Association 'Getta la rete', it is possible to visit the Medieval Crypt, the Assumption room, the Refectory of the eighteenth century, the Vanvitellian Church and its corridors, in addition to the suggestive Chapel of the Reliquies which, along with numerous relics of Martyrs and Vincentians Saints, guards the mysterious picture of the Damned Soul and an inedited Ampoule of St. Gennaro's blood, patron saint of the Parthenopean city. The Association also cares for the valorization of Santa Maria Succurre Miseris Church and its evocative hypogean environments.
