Small 16th-century church near the Banchi Nuovi, with a piperno doorway topped by an angel; now abandoned.

In the alley of the same name, near piazzetta Banchi Nuovi, stands the church of San Girolamo dei Ciechi, founded in the 16th century together with a congregation.The oldest feature is the piperno doorway topped by an angel. Sadly the church is now seriously neglected and the works it held, including 18th-century canvases by Lorenzo De Caro, have been dispersed. We point it out because this heritage too deserves attention.
