Without any hesitation the most noble of churches mixing norman architecture with other styles over the centuries but due to sympathetic restorations it has been brought back to its most essential beauty. The catacombs adjacent are also worth a visit to give you a real sense of the intricate layers of history upon which it was built.

The veiled Christ is the most moving piece of sculpture I've ever seen. Breathtaking! The other sculptures are great too. Don't miss it.

This is a must see in Napoli, just for the Veiled Christ. There were several times I got lost looking at certain parts of this sculpture and really thought it was real from the intense detail. It's insane! I recommend buying your ticket online so you can be in the fast line which moved much more quickly than the other one (for 1 extra Euro). And make sure you get the audio guide. It gives some good info about the place which really helps you appreciate it more.

This is one of the astonishing places I have ever been. Unfortunately photos and recording prohibited. But nevertheless I did enjoy just observing the masterpiece. It cots 7Euros and in general inside you will find nothing as interesting as this spectacular sculpture of the veiled Christ. But it worth the money.

I'm not a huge student of art but the sculpture of the Veiled Christ at this church is amazing. It literally looks like Jesus coming through a veil - but it is marble. While the Veiled Christ is alone worth the admission, it's definitely worth spending at least an hour here looking at everything. I would recommend getting the audio guide as there are a lot of interesting facts about the history of Sanservero that you won't pick up on from the signboards that have very limited descriptions.
