What You Will Experience

• Regal & Devotional Splendour
  Explore the Royal Chapel (Cappella del Tesoro), adorned with Baroque masterpieces by artists like Domenichino, Lanfranco and Ribera; view the sacred busts, reliquaries, and frescoes in glittering corridors of faith.

• Treasures Beyond Compare
  Behold the Mitre of San Gennaro—crafted in 1713 by Matteo Treglia and set with thousands of precious stones. Donated over centuries, the remarkable Necklace and other items from popes, kings, and ordinary believers tell stories of history, artistry, and faith.

• Art & Relics Under One Roof
  Wander through rooms that hold glittering silver busts, ancient ex-votos, paintings, processional crosses, fine fabrics, and sacred objects preserved from age to age. Discover also sacristies newly opened to the public, once hidden behind closed doors for centuries.

• Sound & Storytelling
  Your ticket includes an audio guide in up to 11 languages (and in Neapolitan), featuring evocative storytelling, music and voices that deepen the connection between object, place and Naples' people.

• A Living Heritage
  Feel the living devotion to San Gennaro, patron saint of Naples. The collection doesn’t just sit in a vault—it reflects centuries of rituals, miracles (including the famous blood liquefaction ceremonies), and the resilience of a city shaped by faith and art.
