San Michele Arcangelo, Rococo church building near Port'Alba, Naples, Italy

San Michele Arcangelo features a facade with two architectural orders, including composite lesenes and inflated pilasters enclosing a polylobed diaphragm.

The church, originally named Santa Maria della Provvidenza, underwent reconstruction in the 18th century under architect Domenico Antonio Vaccaro with extensions by Giuseppe Astarita.

The interior displays artworks including Saint Michael by Giuseppe Marullo, while the ceiling contains frescoes painted by Lucio Stabile in the 18th century.

Following extensive renovations, the church reopened to visitors in October 2010, offering access to religious services and architectural appreciation.

The sacristy contains a 1758 marble font by Nicola Tagliacozzi Canale and two walnut pews from 1772 with oval marble reliefs depicting biblical scenes.
