Santa Maria Assunta dei Pignatelli, Naples, Baroque former church in Via Nilo, Naples, Italy.
Santa Maria Assunta dei Pignatelli features baroque architecture with detailed frescoes by Fedele Fischetti decorating the interior walls and ceiling.
Originally constructed in the 14th century as a private chapel for the Pignatelli family, the church underwent significant reconstructions in 1477 and 1736.
The main altar displays a prominent painting of the Assumption by Fedele Fischetti, while the left side houses the Renaissance tomb of Carlo Pignatelli.
The church stands at the intersection of Via Nilo and Via Giovanni Paladino, with several historical churches within 200 meters walking distance.
An ancient Roman statue of the Nile God stands directly in front of the church entrance, creating a connection between religious and classical elements.
