The "shoemakers' church" of the Duchesca, founded in 1533 by the shoemakers' guild and renovated by Filippo Botta.

In the Duchesca area, on via Antonio Ranieri, stands the shoemakers' church. It was founded in 1533 by their guild and dedicated to the patrons of the trade, Saints Crispin and Crispinian; the altarpiece was entrusted to Pietro Belverte with the young Giovanni da Nola.Around 1850 the architect Filippo Botta gave it its present appearance, with a narrow two-storey façade. Inside we also find two canvases by Giovanni Salomone. The church is still open for worship.
