Visit the Maschio Angioino, also known as Castel Nuovo, one of Naples’ most iconic monuments. This medieval fortress stands at the gates of the city’s historic center, overlooking the Gulf of Naples. Once home to kings and viceroys, today it hosts the Naples Civic Museum, offering a fascinating journey through art and history.
With your audio guide directly on your smartphone, explore at your own pace while discovering stories of royal dynasties, artistic masterpieces, and hidden legends behind every stone.
Walk through monumental halls like the Cappella Palatina, admire Gothic sculptures and Renaissance frescoes, and visit the Sala dei Baroni, once used for royal banquets. Continue through the Pinacoteca, displaying works from the 14th to the 19th century, and the Sala Novecento, featuring modern art from local collections. Don’t miss the Archaeological Path beneath the castle, where the past meets myth.
Your visit also includes access to the Monumental Courtyard and the Chapel of the Souls in Purgatory. Standing between land and sea, the Maschio Angioino is a living symbol of Naples — a place where architecture, art, and history blend in perfect harmony.
