Introduction
The history of the Church of New Jesus can be traced back to the 16th century. It is the most magnificent Renaissance-style architecture in Naples. The church is also one of the oldest churches in Naples, where many important events are held. The original paintings by Giotto were destroyed during World War II and rebuilt later. The church still has the remains of artillery shells from World War II. The exterior of the church is a pyramid-shaped structure made of chiseled stones, which is very unique. Across the church, there are the famous Santa Chiara and Piazza del Gesù Nuovo. Upstairs in the church, there are often various literary lectures and classrooms of the Confucius Institute.
