Further information
With its extraordinary stratification of eras, the Duomo - also known as the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta - is a testimony to the millennial history of Naples, as well as one of the most important symbols of the city.
The architecture and artistic richness that characterize it are the result of an interweaving of styles ranging from the Greek, Roman, early Christian, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque periods.
The Duomo is also the guardian of a timeless veneration. Here, three times a year, a prodigy is repeated that unites the city and gives it hope: the prodigy of the liquefaction of the blood of San Gennaro, the patron saint of the city.
It is an event that, for centuries, occurs under the eyes of faithful and curious and continues to imprint a deep and indelible mark in the identity of the city.
The Duomo is not only a place of worship, but a real complex that includes the Basilica of Santa Restituta, the oldest in the city, the Baptistery of San Giovanni in Fonte, considered the oldest in the West and the Crypt of San Gennaro, whose altar houses the urn with the body of the Saint.
The Neapolitan Cathedral is the heart of the MUDD - Diocesan Diffuso, a social project that was born with the aim of Involve the local community, young people and visitors in the enhancement of the religious and cultural heritage of the historic center of Naples.
