5.0 based on 797 reviews
The church of Monteoliveto, or Sant'Anna dei Lombardi, is known for its quantity and quality of Renaissance artworks, such as those by tuscans Benedetto da Maiano and Antonio Rossellino, together with famed frescos by Giorgio Vasari within the Sagrestia Vecchia that make the Church one of the most relevant examples of Tuscan Renaissance in Naples. It’s also important to mention the Compianto sul Cristo Morto, a statuesque group by Guido Mazzoni from Modena. Guided Tours of the Museum are organized by the Social Cooperative ParteNeapolis.

We knew nothing about the church but were introduced to it by a couple of young stuff members that were promoting it outside. The church seems pretty forgettable until you reach the last chapel, a beauty all covered in frescoes by Giorgio Vasari, the illustrious tuscan artist from 1500s. Worth the visit.

3. Museo Gracco di Arte Contemporanea e Fotografia

On a first immediate reading, Gracco's figural universe seems to reach us from a "classic" world, far away, as if we had been suddenly catapulted in time and placed in front of an example of mural painting, where the chromatic weaving, deliberately faded, tends to neutralise the space perspective and to offer itself on the surface, a little as happens to certain affrescoes.

This museum is a highlight in Napoli, I spent most part of the day there. There is a fantastic exhibition in the royal apartments about cultural life in Napoli in baroque times. The is a vast collection of medieval, renaissance and baroque painting. And I was pleasantly surprised by the modern art at the top floor. Highlights are paintings by Caravaggio, Brueghel and Andy Warhol.

This small museum in the heart of Sorrento is well worth a visit. We had a bit of a time finding it, but once we did, we loved wandering the three floors and marveling at the exquisite inlaid wood that Sorrento is known for. You don't have to spend forever, but do yourself a favor and poke your nose in. It will give you a much greater appreciation and eye for this art form.

The museum consists in 4 rooms: the geology and palaeontology room, the prehistoric and protohistoric room, the zoology and botany room and the archaeology room with over 20.000 naturalistic and archaeological finds which were gathered by Ignazio Cerio on Capri.
