Sant Agostino alla Zecca, Naples, Baroque church near the former mint in Naples, Italy.
Sant Agostino alla Zecca features a large stone facade with architectural elements characteristic of 15th-century religious buildings in southern Italy.
The church received its initial foundation from Robert I of Anjou in 1259, followed by extensive reconstruction during the Baroque period by Bartolomeo Picchiati.
The interior contains detailed frescoes by Giacinto Diano in the Sacristy, representing religious scenes from Augustinian traditions.
The building remains closed to visitors since the Irpinia earthquake of 1980 and requires substantial restoration work to ensure structural stability.
The name of this religious structure connects to its location near the former Naples mint, where currency production took place in medieval times.
