Baroque church near the Rettifilo founded in the 16th century, now a Byzantine-rite Orthodox church.

In the Pendino district, near corso Umberto I, stands a church with many names: Sant'Andrea Apostolo, Sant'Agnello dei Grassi or Santa Maria del Ben Morire. It was founded at the beginning of the 16th century by Maddalena Carnegrassa.It passed to the congregation of Santa Maria del Ben Morire, which enlarged it and gave it its present Baroque look; today it is a Byzantine-rite Orthodox church: an example of today's multicultural Naples.
