Review & FAQ:

Adjacent to the Cathedral of Naples, visitors will find the beloved Museum of the Treasure of San Gennaro. It is not only the city’s legacy from their patron saint, but it is also regarded as having one of the world’s most spectacular collections of jewels. The 18th century Mitre de San Gennaro with 3,328 diamonds, an impressive 198 emeralds, plus 168 rubies – 3,694 jewels in total – is in itself worth a visit to the museum. Visitors will also appreciate stunning bronze busts, a gilded sedan chair from the 18th century, and precious 17th century frescoes painted by Giacomo Farelli and Luca Giordano.
