San Giorgio Maggiore, Naples
San Giorgio Maggiore, Naples, Baroque church building in central Naples, Italy.
The San Giorgio Maggiore church stands at the intersection of Via Vicaria Vecchia and Via Duomo, featuring three domes above each nave.
The church dates back to the 4th century as Basilica Severiana, receiving its current name in the 9th century during the Lombard conflicts.
The interior houses notable artworks, including frescoes by Francesco Solimena and a wooden crucifix crafted by Nicola Fumo in the Baroque period.
Visitors can enter the church without admission fees from Monday to Saturday between 08:00-12:00 and 17:00-19:00, and Sundays from 08:00-13:00.
The church's orientation was reversed during the 1640 reconstruction by Cosimo Fanzago, transforming the original apse into the main entrance.
