Church of the confraternity founded in 1704 in the Arenella, with a plain façade already neoclassical in taste.

In the Arenella, beside the older parish church, stands the church of the confraternity of Santa Maria del Soccorso, founded in 1704 by the theologian Don Antonio Cerulli to spread devotion to the Madonna del Soccorso.A curiosity: from the very beginning the confraternity welcomed both men and women. The church was built in the following years; its very simple façade already anticipates the neoclassical style.
