Late 18th-century church of the Neapolitan greengrocers on via Postica Maddalena, still run by their archconfraternity.

On via Postica Maddalena, in the San Lorenzo district, stands a church that tells the story of Neapolitan trades: it still belongs to the archconfraternity of the Arte dei Verdummari, the greengrocers.Their guild was founded in the 13th century, and from 1579 a Monte della Misericordia was based here for mutual aid, medical care and the burial of members. The building retains its late 18th-century appearance intact.
