Santa Maria la Nova is an authentic treasure chest of history, art, and spirituality. Founded on May 10, 1279, on the hill overlooking the ancient Angevin port of Naples, this historic Franciscan convent rises in the heart of the city’s historic center. Over the centuries, it has undergone numerous transformations, reflecting the different sensibilities and artistic styles that have followed one another. Its walls preserve traces of layered artistic heritage, bearing witness to a rich and diverse past. Every corner tells a story: from Renaissance sculptures to Baroque frescoes, from masterfully decorated chapels to works of art that adorn every space. The ability to harmonize different styles and sensibilities makes Santa Maria la Nova a place of particular interest and rare beauty. This fusion of historical and artistic elements creates a unique environment where spirituality and culture meet. Today, Santa Maria la Nova is not only of great historical and artistic value, but also a prestigious venue for events of all kinds. Its versatile spaces—including the Church, with a capacity of up to 300 seats, and the Cloister of St. James, used for catering services—offer endless possibilities for customization. The venue is ideal for hosting events that combine business, culture, and beauty, ensuring an unforgettable experience in a truly unparalleled historic setting.
