The basilica of the Sanità district, above the Catacombs of San Gaudioso.

The basilica was built at the beginning of the 17th century by the Dominicans and Neapolitans call it "San Vincenzo" because of their devotion to Saint Vincent Ferrer. It has a large majolica-tiled dome and a raised presbytery.Beneath the church lie the Catacombs of San Gaudioso, which can be visited with the district's guides together with the Catacombs of San Gennaro.
