Church on via Tribunali born from an Orsini palazzo of 1480, with a fine Renaissance doorway; reopened in 2010.

On via Tribunali, near San Tommaso a Capuana, a church hides behind a Renaissance doorway: this was the palazzo of the Orsini, Counts of Nola, built in 1480.In 1585 Father Alessandro Boria turned it into a church with a conservatory for girls. Of the palazzo there remains the fine 15th-century doorway shaped like a triumphal arch with half-columns and friezes, topped by a Baroque window. It was also called the magistrates' church; it reopened in 2010.
