Chiesa di Sant'Anna all'Arenella, Catholic church in Arenella district, Naples, Italy.

The Chiesa di Sant'Anna all'Arenella exhibits Neoclassical architecture with symmetrical proportions and classical design elements throughout its exterior and interior spaces.

The church emerged from a 1896 incident when a painting of Saint Anne teaching Virgin Mary flew during a storm and was found by Amalia Stampa del Prete.

The central altar features the original painting depicting Saint Anne teaching the Sacred Scriptures to the Virgin Mary, which initiated the local devotion.

Located on Via Arenella in Naples, the church maintains regular mass schedules and welcomes visitors interested in religious architecture from the early 1900s.

The bell tower, added in 1956, uses electronic equipment to generate bell sounds instead of traditional mechanical bells.
