San Severo fuori le mura, Roman Catholic church in Sanità district, Naples, Italy.
The church features an elevated entrance with marble details and connects to underground catacombs through a small tunnel in the third chapel.
In 1573, Cardinal Mario Carafa ordered the construction of the church near the catacombs, which later underwent renovations by architect Dionisio Lazzari in 1680.
The transept displays marble reliefs of the Virgin and Child from 1600, while the choir houses two paintings by Paolo de Matteis from 1709.
The church maintains regular visiting hours from Monday through Sunday between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM, with no entrance fee required.
The Cappella dei Bianchi contains the contemporary sculpture Figlio Velato by artist Jago, adding modern artistic elements to this historical structure.
