Eighteenth-century chapel of the De Franchis family at the corner of via Foria and via Tenore, with a piperno doorway.

At the corner of via Foria and via Tenore, near the Botanical Garden, stands the De Franchis chapel, built in the 18th century by the family as the chapel of the palazzo next door.The façade is simple, with a piperno doorway topped by an arched window in the same volcanic stone. From here, walking up via Tenore, you reach Santa Maria degli Angeli alle Croci in a few steps.
