The name “Vomero” from the play of the hills that the peasants of the hill practiced on the feast days, challenging to trace the plow. In the Roman period but already in the

Greek age from the vomero descended streams of water

On the top of the hill, in the tenth century, a chapel was also called a holy helmet. And St.Elmo Charles Duke of

Calabria, son of the King Roberto, founded the Charterhouse of St.Martin.

The Vomero today is the large and populous city wreath along with the Arenella and the top Vomero

The life of Michele Cuciniello

• Among the Neapolitan art nativity certainly the most famous is theset up made by Michele Cuciniello. Conserved since 1879 in the SanMartino Museum, it is made up of 800 pieces. Cuciniello was bornin Naples in 1823 by noble Lucani and Neapolitan parents. Hestudied at the Real High School of the Savior in San Carlo and thenenrolled in the faculty of Architecture. In 1848, just 25, he hadstarted a brilliant career as an architect of Genio Civile. Cuciniello,however, was deeply disappointed when the cautious KingFerdinand II after the anti-monarchical warfare of May 15 of thatyear recalled troops from Lombardy for public order reasons inNaples. He also suspended the constitution granted a few monthsearlier, abolished the Civic Guard and the press freedom. Cuciniellowas thus locked up in his work and hobbies, enthusiastic aboutarcheology.

• He designed civil engineering projects to improve roads and squares andto reclaim nearby camps. At the same time, cultivating the study ofpopular traditions, he started collecting statues of shepherds from the1700s, acquiring them from private individuals, others in the workshops offamous artisans. He then moved away from the Kingdom of the TwoSicilies, in voluntary exile to Paris, renouncing an easy career as anarchitect. Returning to his home in Naples in 1860 he went on to collectNeapolitan pastors until 1877. Two years later he made a donation to theReal Museum of San Martino. Michele Cucinielo died in Naples in 1889,leaving his great work in his beloved city inherited.

Cathedral

Naples Cathedral (Italian: Duomo di Napoli, Cattedrale di Santa MariaAssunta or Cattedrale di San Gennaro;Neapolitan: Viscuvato 'e Napule) isa Roman Catholic cathedral, the main church of Naples, southern Italy, and theseat of the Archbishop of Naples. It is widely known as the Cattedrale di SanGennaro, in honour of Saint Januarius, the city's patron saint.

The present cathedral was commissioned by King Charles I of Anjou. Constructioncontinued during the reign of his successor, Charles II (1285-1309) and wascompleted in the early 14th century under Robert of Anjou. It was built on thefoundations of two palaeo-Christian basilicas, whose traces can still be clearlyseen. Underneath the building excavations have revealed Greek and Romanartifacts.The Archbishop's Palace adjoins the cathedral.

Page 14: My amazing city: Naples

The main attraction of the interior is the Royal Chapel of the Treasure of SanGennaro, with frescoes by Domenichino and Giovanni Lanfranco

The church houses a vial of the blood of Saint Januarius which is brought outtwice a year, on the first Saturday in May and on 19 September, when the driedblood usually liquefies. If the blood fails to liquefy, then legend has it that disasterwill befall Naples

On March 21, 2015, the blood in the vial appeared to liquify during a visit byPope Francis. This was taken as a sign of the saint's favour of the pope. The blooddid not liquify when Pope Benedict XVI visited in 2007.

The Royal Palace

History

Statues of kings of naples

Page 24: My amazing city: Naples

The palace is on the site of an earlier residence, which had housed the former viceroy Don Pedro de Toledo, Marquis of Villafranca. Construction on the present building was begun in the 17th century by the architect Domenico Fontana.[1] Intended to house the King Philip III of Spain on a visit never fulfilled to this part of his kingdom, instead it initially housed the Viceroy Fernando Ruiz de Castro, count of Lemos. By 1616, the facade had been completed, and by 1620, the interior was frescoed by BattistelloCaracciolo, Giovanni Balducci and Belisario Corenzio. The decoration of the Royal Chapel of Assumption was not completed until 1644 by Antonio Picchiatti.In 1734, with the arrival of Charles III of Spain to Naples, the palace became the royal residence of the Bourbons. On the occasion of his marriage to Maria Amalia of Saxony in 1738, Francesco De Mura and Domenico Antonio Vaccaro helped remodel the interior. It was Charles who build the other three palaces in locations more peripheral to the city center. Further modernization took place under Ferdinand I of the Two Sicilies. In 1768, on the occasion of his marriage to Maria Carolina of Austria, under the direction of Ferdinando Fuga, the great hall was rebuilt and the court theater added. During the second half of the 18th century, a "new wing" was added, which in 1927 became the Vittorio Emanuele III National Library. By the 18th century, the royal residence was moved to Reggia of Caserta, as that inland town was more defensible from naval assault, as well as more distant from the often-rebellious populace of Naples.

In 1888, King Umberto I of Savoy made changes to the western façade side of the building (fronting on Piazza del Plebiscito), by displaying in niches a series of statues of prominent rulers of Naples since the foundation of the Kingdom of Naples in the 12th century. The statues are displayed in chronological order, based on the dynasty of each ruler. The series starts with Roger the Norman (sculpted by Emilio Franceschi), and ends with Vittorio Emanuele II, the tallest statue and the last to be added
