San Giacomo degli Spagnoli, Minor basilica in Piazza Municipio, Naples, Italy.
The basilica features a Latin cross layout with three naves, a central dome, and a barrel vault supported by original Piperno pillars.
Construction of the basilica began in 1540 under Spanish viceroy Pedro de Toledo, who commissioned architect Ferdinando Manlio to design the structure.
The basilica contains numerous funeral monuments, including the tomb of Pedro de Toledo, completed in 1570 by Giovanni da Nola with cardinal virtues statues.
The building stands within Palazzo San Giacomo in Naples city center, forming part of the UNESCO World Heritage historical district.
Between 1741 and 1825, the basilica underwent major changes when the adjacent hospital was demolished to create space for the Ministry Palace.
