In Naples, centuries-old spires rise above alleys where secrets still whisper and revolutions once raged. Shadows flicker beneath grand domes and the scent of incense clings to cold stone walls.

This self-guided audio tour weaves through sacred cathedrals and hidden chapels in San Lorenzo, unlocking stories beyond the guidebooks. Uncover local legends and forbidden dramas that shaped the city’s restless soul.

Who was the mysterious figure whose body vanished from the Cathedral of Naples after a fiery riot? Which rebellious monk in San Gregorio Armeno defied the crown—and paid dearly for it? Why does an ancient fresco in the Church of the Girolamini bear a symbol known only to a secret society?

Move from sunlight to shadow and back, feeling the pulse of forgotten battles and holy mysteries as you walk winding streets. The journey transforms each stone into a witness and every echo into a clue.

Begin your discovery now and unlock the beating heart of Naples.
