Carminiello ai Mannesi, Former baroque church in central Naples, Italy
The Carminiello ai Mannesi complex covered 700 square meters near the Naples Cathedral, featuring Roman baths that descended toward the Mediterranean Sea.
During World War II in 1943, aerial bombardments destroyed the church structure, revealing substantial remnants of ancient Roman imperial architecture underneath.
The site contains a preserved Mithraeum, an underground temple from the second century where followers conducted ceremonies dedicated to the deity Mithras.
The archaeological area stands behind a fence near number 30 on the historic center map, one block south of Naples Cathedral.
The thermal complex includes two levels built with opus reticulatum and laterizio techniques, containing cisterns, storage areas, and bath chambers.
