Museum of the Treasure of San Gennaro

The bond that Naples Italy and the Neapolitans with San Gennaro goes far beyond the simple devotion to the patron saint. It is a visceral and shared sentiment, which over the centuries has overcome prohibitions and restrictions, becoming increasingly stronger. Although San Gennaro is considered by the church a saint of “Serie B”, it is not for the Neapolitans. The treasure is the most immediate and important proof of this love for “Yellow Face”, the name with which the Neapolitans call the Saint due to its most famous statue in gilded silver.

The place where the egg was kept was closed by heavy locks and kept secret because the good fortune of the castle depended on that egg. From that moment on, the fate not only of the Castle, but also of the entire city of Naples Italy, was linked to that egg, certainly a support that we could define as a bit fragile, but still something to hold onto for a bit of hope. Castel dell’Ovo is located on the islet of Megaride, a strip of land from which the history of Naples and its ancient civilization originated. Today the rock is known by the name […]
