A 16th-century complex on Via Sant'Antonio a Capodimonte, founded as a hospice and rebuilt in the 17th century after a flood.

On Via Sant'Antonio a Capodimonte, the complex of Santa Maria della Misericordia was founded in the 16th century as a hospice. A nearby stream burst its banks and destroyed it, and it was rebuilt in the 17th century.The architecture combines Renaissance and Baroque elements. The church, with a single nave and side chapels, holds some works of good quality, such as a Saint Francis in Prayer by Federico Maldarelli.
