Twelfth-century church born as a hermitage of the Benedictines of Montevergine, with a late Baroque façade and large oculus.

On vico della Vicaria, in the historic centre, the church of San Felice in Pincis began in the 12th century as a hermitage dedicated to Saint William of Vercelli, founder of the Montevergine congregation, which used it until the 14th century.A lay congregation later dedicated it to Saint Felix, martyr of Nola. In the second half of the 18th century it was restored in late Baroque style: the façade is decorated with stucco and a large central oculus.
