Santa Maria Apparente, Baroque church in Naples, Italy.

Santa Maria Apparente features a facade with columns, pilasters, and decorative volutes designed by architect Arcangelo Guglielmelli in the 17th century.

Construction of the church began in 1581, with architect Nicola Longo later contributing to its development through additional architectural work in 1632.

The interior houses significant artworks, including frescoes by Giovanni Battista Benaschi and an Annunciation painting created by Fabrizio Santafede.

The church maintains regular opening hours and continues to serve as an active place of worship within the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Naples.

Architectural sculptor Domenico Antonio Vaccaro enhanced the interior with detailed ornamental work that exemplifies the Neapolitan Baroque style.
