Building housing a famous painting by Caravaggio: The Seven Works of Mercy.
Founded in 1601, this charitable institution helped the most needy; in other words, it performed works of mercy. The Pio Monte is still active today and its building presents a gallery of paintings dating from the 15th to the 19th century. The centerpiece, displayed in the church, is Caravaggio's painting The Seven Works of Mercy, dating from 1607, for which the painter was inspired by the atmosphere of the Neapolitan streets.

On visite cette institution charitable essentiellement pour le chef d’œuvre du Caravage, les "7 Œuvres de Miséricorde", de 1607, mais les autres œuvres de peintres italiens sont intéressantes à découvrir. Le billet permet de visiter la pinacothèque située à l'étage, avec un balcon qui donne dans la chapelle et offre une jolie perspective sur la toile du Caravage. Belle vue aussi sur la guglia San Gennaro qui se trouve en face de la chapelle. L'entrée (7 euros) reste toutefois un peu chère.
