Neo-Gothic Protestant church on via Carlo Poerio in Chiaia, built in the 1860s by the German and Swiss community.

On via Carlo Poerio, in Chiaia, stands the Lutheran church of Naples. The Franco-German Protestant community, barely tolerated under the Bourbons, could only hold services under the protection of the Prussian legation.In the early 1860s, after Garibaldi's arrival, it finally obtained a plot of land: with the support of German and Swiss families living in the city, this neo-Gothic church was built. A testament to the cosmopolitan Naples of the 19th century.
