Pio Monte della Misericordia, Church and art museum in Naples, Italy

The octagonal church contains Caravaggio's The Seven Works of Mercy painting, displayed alongside artworks from other 17th-century Neapolitan artists.

Seven young Neapolitan noblemen established this charitable institution in 1602, dedicating their efforts to assist people affected by poverty in Naples.

The collection includes 160 paintings from the 15th to 20th centuries, with an archive of 17,000 printed volumes documenting Naples' social history.

The museum welcomes visitors Monday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM and Sundays from 9:00 AM to 2:30 PM, with tickets priced at 10 euros.

The institution maintains its dual mission combining art exhibitions with charitable work, funding social programs through museum admission revenues.
