Santa Maria La Nova ：ウィキペディア英語版

Santa Maria La Nova

:Santa Maria La Nova is also a town in Campagna.
Santa Maria la Nova is a Renaissance style, now-deconsecrated, Roman Catholic church and monastery in central Naples. The church is located at the beginning of a side street directly across from the east side of the main post office, a few blocks south of the Church and Monastery of Santa Chiara. Today the adjacent monastery is a meeting site and hosts the Museo ARCA of modern religious art.〔(Santa Maria la Nova ), official website.〕
==History==
Since the early 13th century, a Franciscan monastery, named ''Santa Maria ad Palatium'' had existed nearby, but by 1268, was demolished in order for Charles of Anjou decided to build his Castel Nuovo (new castle), or Maschio Angioino. By 1279, the Friars were granted this site to build a new church, hence ''la Nova''. Initially constructed in Gothic style, the building was battered by Naple's frequent earthquakes but also suffered gravely from an explosion originating from Castel Sant'Elmo on December 13, 1587.〔(History of Santa Maria la Nova ), official website.〕
This last episode prompted reconstruction in 1596-1599, as announced in a cornice inscription, leading to the facade we see today, designed by Agnolo Franco〔(Napoli e i luoghi celebri delle sue vicinanze ), Volume 1, by Stanislao Aloe (for ecclesiastical sites); Gaetano Nobile Publisher, Naples 1845, page 332.〕 Typical of Franciscan churches, the facade has a sober and simple restraint, accessed through a staircase and balustrade.
