Church of 1573 founded by Fabrizio Pignatelli, with Francesco Laurana's Madonna and the founder's funerary monument.

On piazzetta Fabrizio Pignatelli, in Montecalvario, this church was founded in 1573 by the knight Fabrizio Pignatelli, the same year as the nearby Ospedale dei Pellegrini, which later took over its running.Inside, with a single nave, two important works await us: Francesco Laurana's 15th-century Madonna and Child, now on the high altar, and the founder's funerary monument, made by Michelangelo Naccherino between 1590 and 1609.
