Church of 1851 at the Cristallini, built for a children's home with the help of charity performances at the Teatro San Carlo.

On via dei Cristallini, near the Sanità, the church of Santa Maria Maddalena was built in 1851 for a children's home, thanks to private donations and charity performances at the Teatro San Carlo and the Teatro del Fondo.The façade has a triangular pediment and grey rusticated frames; you enter by a piperno staircase. The interior has a single nave with a barrel vault. A little further along the same street is the entrance to the Ipogeo dei Cristallini.
