Convitto Pontano alla Conocchia, Convent in Rione Sanità, Naples, Italy.

The Convitto Pontano alla Conocchia is an 18th-century building in the Rione Sanità, in the area once called "la Conocchia alla Sanità" after a conical Roman columbarium, the Mausoleo della Conocchia, demolished in 1965. It served as a holiday house for boarders of the Jesuits' Collegio del Salvatore, then as an infectious-diseases hospital, then as the seat of the Istituto Pontano from 1 April 1886 and later of the Istituto tecnico industriale Francesco Giordani. Closed since that institute moved to Fuorigrotta in the 1980s, it now stands unused and abandoned.

The building was founded as a Jesuit college and served this purpose through the mid-19th century. The Jesuits were then expelled from Naples, which prompted a radical change in the complex's purpose during the 1884 cholera epidemic.

The name Conocchia comes from a Roman columbarium, the Mausoleo della Conocchia, whose conical shape resembled a distaff used for winding yarn. The Jesuits used the building as a holiday house for students of the Collegio del Salvatore. In 1886 the Istituto Pontano, founded by Nicola Valente, moved here and was blessed by Cardinal Guglielmo Sanfelice.

The building has stood unused and abandoned since the Francesco Giordani industrial technical institute moved to Fuorigrotta in the 1980s. There is no public access, no guided tour programme and no opening times; the structure can only be seen from the street in the Rione Sanità.

The name Conocchia refers to the distaff of a spinning wheel, which the conical first-century Roman columbarium nearby resembled. That mausoleum was demolished without authorization in 1965 to make way for building speculation, so only the name survives in the area's toponymy.
