Ancient church inside Castel dell'Ovo, on the islet of Megaride, with a loggia of Gothic arches; now used as an exhibition hall.

Inside Castel dell'Ovo, on the islet of Megaride, is the church of San Pietro, founded by Basilian monks: the earliest records date from 1324.The finest surviving feature is the entrance preceded by the large Gothic arches of the loggia. Today the church is used as a hall for the castle's exhibitions and events: let's take the chance to discover it while visiting the castle, with the sea all around.
