Santa Donna Regina Nuova, Baroque former church in Naples, Italy.
The church features a single nave with six side chapels, decorated with rich marble elements and extensive frescoes by Francesco de Benedictis on the ceiling.
Construction started in 1616 under architect Giovanni Giacomo Di Conforto, with the structure completed in 1627 and officially consecrated in 1669.
Francesco Solimena painted frescoes depicting narratives of Saint Francis in the apse, while Agostino Beltrano created decorative works in the cupola.
The building now functions as the Diocesan Museum, allowing visitors to examine the architectural and artistic elements of Neapolitan Baroque style.
The sacristy contains paintings by Massimo Stanzione and Charles Mellin, along with two preserved still-life works from the 16th century.
