Cloître des Clarisses de Santa Chiara, Franciscan cloister in Naples, Italy.
The cloister features 72 white pillars decorated with blue and yellow majolica tiles depicting pastoral scenes and floral patterns throughout its corridors.
Built between 1310 and 1340, the cloister underwent substantial renovation in 1742 by architect Domenico Antonio Vaccaro, transforming its original Gothic design.
The walls display Baroque frescoes narrating Franciscan stories while benches adorned with ceramic tiles illustrate daily life in 17th century Naples.
The cloister opens Monday through Saturday from 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM and Sundays from 10:00 AM to 2:30 PM with admission at 7 euros.
The octagonal pillars support pointed arches, creating two perpendicular pathways that divide the garden into four sections filled with citrus trees.
