Seventeenth-century church near via Foria that gives its name to the Miracoli district; the original image of the Madonna was found in 2023.

In largo dei Miracoli, a few steps from via Foria, stands the church that gave its name to the whole area. It was built in the 17th century just beyond the northern edge of the old walls, together with a Franciscan convent.From 1660 the complex passed to the Pio Monte della Misericordia, which created a women's monastery there. The church holds the image of the Madonna dei Miracoli, whose original was found in 2023: a fine story of rediscovery for the district.
