Completed in the 14th century, Duomo di Napoli was built on the foundation of two palaeo-Christian basilicas, traces of which can still be seen today. When you visit this Catholic cathedral, be sure to look for the fourth-century mosaics. The grand Royal Chapel of the Treasure of San Gennaro contains famous frescoes by Domenichino and a reliquary by 14th-century French masters. Those of a squeamish disposition should skip the caskets of human bones. The cathedral operates a strictly modest dress code.

For all the Cathedrals I've visited, this is by far one of the best. It is free entry, and so extravagant. Although I was told that you had to dress respectfully (shoulders and knees covered) this wasn't respected here? No hats to be worn in the Cathedral, and masks are optional, but it is a wonderful place to get hit with the full force of Catholicism.

One of the best places to visit in Naples. Essential. I recommend to visit while there’s natural light because the lighting in the city is not too good. Also you’ll find the crypt of Saint Genaro open which is a must see as well. All for free.
