Churches and places of worship Nocera Inferiore

The Monastery of Sant'Anna was established in 1282 by the bishop of Capaccio, Pietro. Located along the western side of the Park Hill, the Monastery hosted the daughters of the Angevin rulers who wanted them to monk. The Nocerini instead brought their unwanted children to this place destined for the Dominican nuns of cloistered. After several earthquakes the complex was restored and we can still observe the walls that enclosed the gardens and buildings of the ecclesiastical insula.

The Convent of St. Anthony was built around the 13th century after the death of its founder Guido Filangieri, in 1256. The building of remarkable Gothic architecture, has on its outside a large staircase leading to the entrance of the Church portal. To the north is the convent building, while the Church has a nave illuminated by a circular rose window. Within the ecclesiastical structure there are several works by Francesco Solimena and Andrea Sabatini.

The Convent of Sant'Andrea was founded in 1563 by Duke Alfonso Carafa, and rises on the southern slope of the hill of the Park of Nocera Inferiore. The building has a square plan and at the entrance is the marble tomb of the founder. On the monument there is the coat of arms of the Carafa-Castriota Scanderberg family. Inside the convent there are also several paintings and tomb plates.
