Embark on a guided tour of the 500 domes atop the Naples Cathedral, beginning at ground level in the Chapel of the Illustrious. This chapel is home to two remarkable fourteenth-century masterpieces: Jesse's Tree by Lello da Orvieto, which outlines Christ's genealogy, and the Stories of the Passion of Christ, a pictorial cycle with Giottesque and Avignonese influences painted on the side door leading to the rooftops.

As you ascend, discover parts of the Cathedral previously hidden from view, such as remnants of the fifteenth-century dome and an eighteenth-century "forest" - a false suspended dome. From the walkways, take in an unparalleled and awe-inspiring view of the entire city of Naples.

Your rooftop journey is more than just a tour; it's an emotional voyage through centuries of art and architecture, offering panoramic views that stretch from the blue Gulf to the imposing silhouette of Vesuvius. Brought to life by the MuDD project - a Diocesan Museum initiative - the experience marks the first public opening of the Cathedral's rooftops. The achievement was made possible by local young people who chose to invest their future in their city, firmly believing in its potential.

Secure your ticket now for this unforgettable journey where history meets the sky. The secrets of Naples await you at a height of 40 meters, ready to be revealed in a full 360-degree panorama.
