The view of Vesuvius from Castellammare di Stabia offers one of the most iconic and evocative panoramas in the entire Gulf of Naples. From this perspective, the silhouette of the volcano stands imposingly in front of the coast, magnificently closing the curve of the gulf.

The Sanctuary The large complex, visible for its elevated position with respect to the entire plain, is connected to the street level through a large and suggestive staircase in piperno. The building, constructed in the 17th century around the small original temple, bears the signature of the architect Giovanni Paolo di Ambrogio di San Severino. It has a Greek cross plan with a single nave: in the center of the transept stands a majestic dome. The façade is adorned with a beautiful portal with Corinthian columns. Inside the church there is a small temple built by the feudal lord Girolamo Barone and most likely created by Cosimo Fanzago. In this temple there is a painting of the Madonna, in grotesque style, attributed to the painter Tommaso di Stefano. The octagonal drum of the temple is frescoed with images and episodes of the life of the Madonna. On the outside there are eight false windows, interspersed with images of the eight prophets. On the frame, supported by double pillars, you can admire the frescoes of Belisario Corinzio, representing themes inspired by the Divine Comedy: the Dance of Death, the Last Judgement, Hell and Paradise. To the left of the Sanctuary there is a small cloister, with a central pillar and a canopy, as well as the museum of the sanctuary, which houses the remains of works of art, altar marbles, a wooden pulpit, some chandeliers and the photographic reproduction of the works that were destroyed in the fire of 1989.

Even from the beach of Castellammare di Stabia, a town with over 60,000 inhabitants in the province of Naples, you can easily observe the top of Vesuvius. The volcano is imposing and often characterizes the skyline of these areas.

Technically, inside the Rio Foce Sarno park you are not allowed to enter by bike and/or electric bike. I entered carrying it in my hand.
