Located on one of the most popular streets for tourism in all of the beautiful city of Naples, the Spacca Napoli, the San Domenico Maggiore Church is a fantastic destination that visitors to Italy will want to be sure to check out. However, the church building itself, while a fantastic example of the Gothic architectural style, is only a small part of the attraction.

There’s also a fabulous obelisk depicting the locally revered Saint Dominic, dating back to the 17th century and the days of the black plague. Art lovers will also have something to keep their attention, as the church hosts a number of popular frescoes by Pietro Cavallini, and religious artifacts including a crucifix belonging to Aquinas.
