Why is Castel Sant'Elmo a Must-See?
By securing this entry to Castel Sant'Elmo, you can uncover the secrets of this medieval stronghold perched on Vomero Hill at your leisure.
Originally called Belforte and designed as a royal residence for the Angevin throne, the castle has faced destruction and reconstruction throughout its long history. It has served multiple roles, from a military fortress to a prison, and today is home to the Novecento Museum of Naples, showcasing over 150 artworks from various celebrated artists.
With the aid of the audio guide, you will uncover the significant historical occurrences that unfolded within these fortress walls, including the many sieges it has weathered through the ages!
Learn about its unique architectural form, featuring a six-pointed star shape—an exceptional design in fortifications. At the summit, prepare to be captivated by the stunning vistas of Mount Vesuvius and the Sorrento Peninsula, making sure to capture the moment with your camera!
